INTRODUCTION Mathematics refers to numbers and calculations‚ often dealing with magnitudes‚ figures and quantities expressed symbolically. On the other hand‚ music is an art of sound through the use of harmonies‚ rhythm and melodies. Although these two subjects are in contrast to each other‚ as mathematics is often unpopular to most people for its difficulty and music is easily likeable for its pleasantness‚ experts have uncovered a strong connection between the two topics. The connection

I think that many math topics have meaning and relevancy and are dependent on the path one takes in terms of finding real world application. For example‚ sports is largely dependent on sports. Decisions are made based regarding playing time as well as strategy based on percentages. In baseball‚ there is a strong use of math. Managers have to make decisions on which pitchers to start and‚ especially so in games of importance‚ those decisions are predicated upon statistical reality. If a pitcher has

Leonardo of Pisa or Fibonacci and the Issue of Moneylenders NFaly Konate Texas A&M University – Central Texas FIN 590 Dr. Mary Kelly Summer 2012 Northern Italy in the early thirteen century was a land subdivided into multiple feuding city-states. Among the many remnants of defunct Roman Empire was a numerical system (I‚ ii‚ iii‚ iv…) singularly ill suited to complex mathematical calculation‚ let alone the needs of commerce. Nowhere was this more of a problem than in Pisa‚ where merchants

difficult‚ but once you get to understand it will be able to help you to get a good profit. The overall idea of this pattern is to be able to predict the likelihood of a retracement. We will be using the tools we already discussed earlier‚ namely the Fibonacci retracement and extensions! By combining these tools will greatly help us to be to distinguish the area of the continuation of a trend as a whole. On the lesson this time‚ there are a few things that we discuss. Among them are: -ABCD Pattern Pattern

Johann Sebastian Bach was one of the greatest composers in history. “People felt his music and art helped protect people against the advance of doubt bred by the renaissance ideas of scientific‚ rational inquiry.”(The World Book Encyclopedia 2012. Chicago‚ IL: World Book‚ 2012. Print). He bought music techniques such as Counterpoint (playing of two or more melodies at one time) and Fugue(where different instruments repeat the same melody with slight variation) to their greatest heights. He wrote

fePolar coordinates are two-dimensional and thus they can be used only where point positions lie on a single two-dimensional plane. They are most appropriate in any context where the phenomenon being considered is inherently tied to direction and length from a center point. For instance‚ the examples above show how elementary polar equations suffice to define curves—such as the Archimedean spiral—whose equation in the Cartesian coordinate system would be much more intricate. Moreover‚ many physical

Their cities were laid out with geometric regularity‚ but no known mathematical documents survive from this civilization. The oldest extant mathematical records from India are the Sulba Sutras (dated variously between the 8th century BC and the 2nd century AD)‚ appendices to religious texts which give simple rules for constructing altars of various shapes‚
