Importance Of Maths In Our Life

Mathematics plays a predominant role in our everyday life and has become an indispensable factor for the progress of our present day world. Counting starts from day one of the birth of a person. Most students would like to know why they have to study various mathematical concepts. Teachers usually cannot think of a real-life application for most topics or the examples that they have are beyond the level of most students. Mathematics is generally regarded as the driest subject at school, made up of routine, difficult, boring, arcane and irrelevant calculations which have nothing to do with discovery and imagination.

When teachers try to convince their students that mathematics is useful in many professions, such as engineering and medical sciences, many of their students may not be interested in these occupations. For example, when some of students wanted to be computer game designers instead, but they wrongly believed that this profession did not require much mathematics, so they need to be demonstrated that computer programming required some mathematics did they show any interest in studying mathematics. In today world the use of mathematics is not limited up to just pass the paper, it is widely used in games for example cricket, football and many other games like soccer players, they did not realize that the sport could involve some mathematics: they erroneously thought that they would have to kick the ball high enough to clear it as far away as possible obviously, it could not be at an angle of 90 from the ground but they believed it to be about 60 when in fact it should be 45 .

Mathematics is generally regarded as the most dry subject at school, made up of routine, boring, arcane and irrelevant calculation which have nothing to do with discovery and imagination. You may have noticed how terms in mathematics have an unnerving effect on most students as well as the public. Dull and Urgh are the most common epithets often used to describe the subject. Whether we realize it or not, mathematics is around us, in our everyday life, and we are using the subject. Mathematics exists in nature. Mathematics is used in the kitchen when we prepare our food, we must put in enough amounts of salt and spices in the curry, otherwise it will be too hot, tasteless, or very salty. To build a house we need mathematics for its shapes and to estimate the cost needed. We need mathematics when we go shopping, and when we are on the highway. Even then, whenever we talk about mathematics, many fear the subject they have the mathematic phobia, and try to avoid it. The fact is that, mathematics forms part of our life

Conclusion

Mathematics is of practical value in many professions. It is not just the mathematical knowledge itself but the thinking processes acquired in genuine mathematical problem solving and investigation that can be applied to unfamiliar situations in other fields. Mathematical knowledge and processes are also useful outside the workplace in everyday life to understand and interpret certain events and news reports so as not to be deceived or swayed by others opinions without any reasonable basis, thus improving one s own quality of life when one is able to lead a meaningful and responsible life.
