INTRODUCTION

2

“If people do not believe that mathematics is simple, it is only because they do not realize how complicated life is.”

INTRODUCTION Mathematics is a methodical application of matter. It is so said

because the subject makes a man methodical or systematic. Mathematics makes our life orderly and prevents chaos. Certain qualities that are nurtured by mathematics are power of reasoning, creativity, abstract or spatial thinking, critical thinking, problem solving ability and even effective communication skills.

Mathematics is the cradle of all creations. Be it a cook or a farmer, a carpenter or a mechanic, a shopkeeper or a doctor, an engineer or a scientist, a musician or a magician, everyone needs mathematics in their day-to-day life. Even insects use mathematics in their everyday life for existence.

Snails make their shells, spiders design their webs, and bees build hexagonal combs. There are countless examples of mathematical patterns in nature's fabric.

“Pure mathematics is, in its way, the poetry of logical ideas”

It is a tool in our hands to make our life simpler and easier. The present age is one of skill-development and innovations. The more mathematical we are in our approach, the more successful we will be.

Math has become an inseparable part of our lives and whether we work in an office or spend most of our time at home, each one of us uses math as a part of our everyday life. No matter where we are as well as whatever we are doing, math is always there whether you notice it or not.

IMPORTANCE OF MATHS IN OUR LIFE

5

“The laws of nature are but the mathematical thoughts of God.”

IMPORTANCE OF MATHS IN OUR LIFE Consider a man going for groceries shopping. He

would need to add up the total value of the things he bought and needs to calculate how much change should he ask for back. All that involves math.

It is also useful in calculating environmental statistics. It helps us to calculate the environment condition namely monsoon arrival, earthquake forecasting, heavy rainfalls ,tsunamis etc.

Mathematics has many important practical applications in every facet of life, including computers, space exploration, engineering, physics, and economics and commerce.

For example, mathematicians knew about binary arithmetic , using only the digits 0 and 1, for yrs before this knowledge became practical in computers to describe switches that are either off (0) or on (1).

“Go down deep enough into anything and you will find mathematics. ”

6

The laws of probability led to our ability to predict behaviors of large populations by sampling.

The importance of mathematics lies in its application in daily life. Its applications includes in the fields of science, technology, economics, business, commerce and computer design, architecture and even in the life of a common man.

On a basic level you need to be able to count, multiply, subtract and divide. It is present in different forms whenever we pick up the phone, manage the money, travel to some place, play soccer, meet new friends; unintentionally in all these things mathematics is involved.

“Life is good for only two things, discovering mathematics and teaching mathematics.”

IN COOKING-

8

While cooking, we need to add the required amount of ingredients in right proportion to make our food tasty. For example- A chocolate cake requires 4-5 eggs,2 cups sugar, some chocolates etc in right proportion.

“The more you know, the less sure you are.” 

GARDENING While planting seeds we have to make rows and columns

before planting them. Sometimes we have to calculate the area of the field for sowing seeds.

9

“ If two wrongs don't make a right, try three.” 

BANKING In bank people deposit their money and lend money

from banks for any purpose, the interest is calculated on the basis of mathematical formulas.

With some knowledge of simple and compound interest we can grow our money.

10

  "Obvious" is the most dangerous word in mathematics. 

STATISTICS

11

“Infinity is a floorless room without walls or ceiling. ”

12

In our ay to day life we have to calculate the area of any geometrical shapes like when we whitewash our buildings ,purchase a land or for construction purposes etc If you want to calculate how much paint, wallpaper, flooring, carpeting or tile you have to buy for your project you must know the area of wall and floor.

“Mathematics is made of 50 percent formulas, 50 percent proofs, and 50 percent imagination.”

ARTS AND FASHION Math is also used by artists to draw geometric patterns on

fashionable clothes. They also use math for calculating the amount and cost of fabric required. Artist also use geometry to design patterns for house ‘s decoration and for clothes.

13“In mathematics you don't understand things. You just get used to them.” 

ART AND ARCHITECTURE

14

Architects use math to calculate the square footage ofrooms and buildings, to lay out floor space dimensionsand to calculate the required space for other areas such asparking, plumbing, etc. The famous example of geometry inarchitecture is Eiffel tower. The famous car companyBMW’s logo is a fine example of geometry in art.

“  Measure what is measurable, and make measurable what is not so.” 

CONCLUSION The uses of mathematics in one’s life is infinite . the use

of mathematics is unquestionable for every individual. Being the queen of all sciences and the king of all arts it offers a wonderful approach to us to be successful in life.

15 “It is easier to square the circle than to get round a Mathematician.”
