(9th-12th grade) I took 5 different math classes. Most of which I scored A’s in. I took Algebra; I did excellent in that class and really enjoyed it. I decided to continue on and take Algebra II and I did just as well. During my 10th grade year‚ I took geometry‚ which I didn’t much care for. As a result of me not being interested in that class‚ I didn’t get as well of a grade as I usually do. Then I tried statistics‚ which I enjoyed. Basically if I was interested in the kind of math I was doing I paid attention

Theory of Knowledge Éanna OBoyle ToK Mathematics “... what the ordinary person in the street regards as mathematics is usually nothing more than the operations of counting with perhaps a little geometry thrown in for good measure. This is why banking or accountancy or architecture is regarded as a suitable profession for someone who is ‘good at figures’. Indeed‚ this popular view of what mathematics is‚ and what is required to be good at it‚ is extremely prevalent; yet it would be laughed at

Geometry Honors Component I know you need to know how to read a write for life‚ but how in the world does math come into play anywhere in life? Believe it or not math is actually very important‚ it’s kinda like a third language. You need math so you can see how much groceries are or to even make or design a building. This math is also known as algebra and geometry. No you may not uses algebra and geometry in the store but you will use it in sport and jobs like Civil Engineer or Architecture. Architecture

not entirely die out. The greatest mathematician of this period was Nicole Oresme (1323-1282) of Normandy. He wrote five mathematical works. In one of this appears the process of locating points by coordinates‚ which foreshadowed modern coordinate geometry. 1.3 Function Math FYI The conventionalization of the functional notation f(x) was contributed by Leonhard Euler of Switzerland. 1.4 Graphs of Functions Math FYI The word function was first introduced by Leibniz in 1694

they measure. Two measurements astronomers use are triangulation (also known in math) and standard candles. Triangulation by technical terms is the method of determining distance based on the principles of geometry. Any type of math and science are closely related the principles of geometry and triangulation in astronomy are then ideological sound. Triangulation as obvious as it sounds uses triangles. So‚ using a three sided shape how can we measure distances in outer space? It sounds complicated

Phytagoras was born in 570 BC‚ on the island of Samos‚ in the Ionian region. Pythagoras was the most recognized Greek mathematician and philosopher through his theorem. Known as "Father of Numbers"‚ he made an important contribution to philosophy and religious teaching in the late 6th century BC. His life and teachings are not so obvious as there are many legends and artificial tales about him. In Greek tradition‚ it is said that he traveled a lot‚ including to Egypt. Phytagoras’s journey to

HISTORY OF MATHEMATICS The history of mathematics is nearly as old as humanity itself. Since antiquity‚ mathematics has been fundamental to advances in science‚ engineering‚ and philosophy. It has evolved from simple counting‚ measurement and calculation‚ and the systematic study of the shapes and motions of physical objects‚ through the application of abstraction‚ imagination and logic‚ to the broad‚ complex and often abstract discipline we know today. From the notched bones of early man
