Mathematics is defined as the science which deals with logic of shape‚ quantity and arrangement. During ancient times in Egypt‚ the Egyptians used maths and complex mathematic equations like geometry and algebra. That is how they managed to build the pyramids. Our day today life would be quite strenuous without maths knowledge. There are many ways in which people use maths during the day today living. Below are some ways in which people use maths in daily lives. * Daily life would be very difficult

Mathematics is a subject that I have thoroughly enjoyed throughout my school years. The challenge of thinking and the process of logic always attract me to Mathematical problems‚ however difficult and regardless of the form in which they come. My aptitude towards mathematics aroused because of its simplicity‚ that as long as you follow the right steps in a systematic order‚ you will reach the correct answer. At the same time‚ the challenge which it provides‚ with its complex yet logical questions

Introduction Mathematics is an indispensable subject of study. It plays an important role in forming the basis of all other sciences which deal with the material substance of space and time. What is Mathematics? Mathematics may be described as the fundamental science. It may be broadly described as the science of space‚ time and number. The universe exists in space and time‚ and is constituted of units of matter. To calculate the extension or composition of matter in space and time and to

Mathematics and the Arts Kokichi Sugihara 1. Fractal Voronoi Diagrams The Voronoi diagram represents the partition of the plane into territories‚ where each territory consists of points nearest to the associated generators. Starting with a small number of generators‚ we add generators at random‚ simulate territory competing‚ and assign colors to the resulting diagram. Then‚ we get something like artistic patterns. Search for the point with the maximum F (θ ‚ ϕ ) in the (θ ‚ ϕ ) space. 3. Generation

Zero is a number and a digit used in mathematics to represent that number in numerals. Zero is not a natural number but it is the smallest whole number. There are two important uses of zero. Firstly‚ in place value number system it is used as empty place indicator. Hence‚ in this number‚ 5102‚ the positions of 5 and one are correct just because of the inclusion of zero. Five is denoting a thousandth place value. Similarly if we omit zero from 5102 that is 512‚ then 5 denote a hundredth place value

Zero in Mathematics Zero as a number is incredibly tricky to deal with. Though zero provides us with some useful mathematical tools‚ such as calculus‚ it presents some problems that if approached incorrectly‚ lead to a breakdown of mathematics as we know it. Adding‚ subtracting and multiplying by zero are straightforward. If c is a real number‚ c+0=c c-0=c c x 0=0 These facts are widely known and regarded to hold true in every situation. However‚ division by zero is a far more complicated
