👉 Tenuious, in the context of mathematics, refers to a quantity that is not finite or has an infinite number of values. For example, a tenuous rope would be tenuous if it could be held at any point without pulling it tight, and a tenuous function would be tenuous if it was continuous but could have discontinuities. In other contexts, the term can also refer to something that is not stable or reliable, such as a tenuous relationship between two people.
