THE IMPORTANCE OF MATHEMATICS W. T. Gowers It is with some disbelief that I stand here and prepare to address this gathering on the subject of the importance of mathematics. For a start‚ it is an extraordinary honour to be invited to give the keynote address at a millennium meeting in Paris. Secondly‚ giving a lecture on the significance of mathematics demands wisdom‚ judgment and maturity‚ and there are many mathematicians far better endowed than I am with these qualities‚ including several

Discuss the cause of the Tacoma bridge disaster‚ in terms of waves‚ vibrations‚ and resonance. Elaborate the effects with relevant equations and formulae. The Tacoma bridge collapse can be attributed to the waves caused by the buildup of energetic vibrations. These energetic vibrations were built up from the bridge “taking energy from the steadily blowing wind” (Crowell). Eventually enough of these energetic vibrations built up to cause resonance within the system‚ causing the wave-like motion

Mathematics is highly valued in our society but for many students the thought of learning mathematics is daunting. Learning mathematics in primacy school may have been a positive experience but it may have also been filled with frustration and anxiety. If a teacher has a negative view of mathematics then their students will adopt this view. Students must be shown the relevance and purpose of mathematics in a real life and meaningful way. There is no doubt that mathematics is an indispensable tool

Geometry PJ Architecture and Geometry Architecture and geometry are perfect complements of each other they go hand to hand in so many ways let’s discuss some of these ways. Architecture has geometry written all over it if geometry never existed Architecture wouldn’t have existed either. First of all geometry is the reason that we can calculate and measure the sizes and shapes of certain structures for us to use. Geometry allows us pin point exactly how much more we may need or less ‚ without
