Mathematics in our World
WHAT IS MATHEMATICS?
Mathematics is the study of pattern and structure.
Mathematics is fundamental to the physical and biological sciences, engineering and
information technology, to economics, and increasingly to the social sciences.
Mathematics is a useful way to think about nature and our world.
Mathematics is a tool to quantify, organize, and control our world, predict
phenomena, and make life easier for us.
WHERE IS MATHEMATICS?
Many patterns and occurrences exist in nature, in our world, in our life.
Mathematics helps make sense of these patterns and occurrences.
WHAT ROLE DOES MATHEMATICS PLAY IN OUR WORLD?
Mathematics helps organize patterns and regularities in our world.
Mathematics helps predict the behavior of nature and phenomena in the world.
Mathematics helps control nature and occurrences in the world for our own ends.
Mathematics has numerous applications in the world making it indispensable.
PATTERNS AND NUMBERS IN NATURE AND THE WORLD
Patterns in nature are visible regularities of form found in the natural world and can
also be seen in the universe.
Nature patterns which are not just to be admired, they are vital clues to the rules that
govern natural processes.
Check out some examples of these patterns that you may be able to spot the
moment you decided to go for a walk.
1. Patterns can be observed even in stars that move in circles across the sky each
day.
2. The weather season cycle each year. All snowflakes contain six-fold symmetry
which no two are exactly the same.
