Definition
Relating to or using the methods and principles of algebra; mathematical in nature using variables and equations.
Etymology
From algebra plus the suffix '-ical,' following the English pattern of creating adjectives from nouns (like 'magic' → 'magical'). This form dates from the 17th-18th centuries.
Kelly Says
The ending '-ical' adds a fancy, formal tone—we say 'musical' but rarely 'music' when describing something related to music, and the same happens with 'algebraical' in older texts!
