See {Voluble}, and cf. {Involute}.]
[1913 Webster]

3. To complicate or make intricate, as in grammatical structure. ``Involved discourses.'' --Locke. [1913 Webster]

8. (Math.) To raise to any assigned power; to multiply, as a quantity, into itself a given number of times; as, a quantity involved to the third or fourth power.
Syn: To imply; include; implicate; complicate; entangle; embarrass; overwhelm.
Usage: To {Involve}, {Imply}. Imply is opposed to express, or set forth; thus, an implied engagement is one fairly to be understood from the words used or the circumstances of the case, though not set forth in form. Involve goes beyond the mere interpretation of things into their necessary relations; and hence, if one thing involves another, it so contains it that the two must go together by an indissoluble connection. War, for example, involves wide spread misery and death; the premises of a syllogism involve the conclusion. [1913 Webster]
