how maths is used in daily life?

Question

actually i want to give ademonstration on the stage as to how we are using maths in our daily life, for that i neede material

Answer 1

WHEN YOU PAY FOR ANYTHING WHICH YOU PURCHASE FROM ANY SHOP. WHAT IS COST WHAT YOU PAID AND WHAT IS BALANCE. BALANCE=PAID-COST. THIS MATH IN DAILY LIFE.

Answer 2

i dont care what the above people say, in my day to day life i do not use trig. Even if i go biking nobody realistically uses trig to find the distance. Now yeah, you use math for recipies and when you buy stuff, thats all well and good, but what about all the math beyond the 7th grade. I dont think that i need to know how to prove that two lines are congruent using theorems, or do i need to know the equation of how to find the volume of a cone, or do i need to know how to graph something on a 3 dimensional plane! And yeah, sure if you grow up to be a freaking rocket scientist then math will be useful, fine. But last time i checked the majority of us are not rocket scientists! Math should be an elective so the select few people who will actually use it in their job can study it, and the overwhelming majority of us who won't use it don't waste our time with it.

And for the record, i am amoung the few that will use it in my career, so its not just those that hate math that have this opinion.

Answer 3

Go to a saree store during a weekday located at a busy market and check the house wives spending hours together on buying a saree each. You would come to know not only the maths being used in daily life but also how it is being 'abused'. LOL.

Answer 4

In our daily life, mostly math is being used...

HOME:
1. kitchen - when baking, a timer is used and a thermostat is used to determine the temperature. These are used with NUMBERS and it is related to math

2. calculator - of course to calculate anything as of taxes, children's homework, office work, etc.

3. computer - not many realize that computers use math to determine any program. THe computer recognizes only 1's and 0's and it translates it to something like a program.

OUTSIDE:

1. supermarket - the cashier is a computer and is set with a calculator.

2. bank - not knowing your amount of money is already bad enough. we need to know our tax payments and bills.

ETC:

1. counting - if you cant count how can you go through life knowing how to cook (amount of ingredients and such)

2. dates - how can you know your birthday and holidays...all of these are numbers too

basically, everday objects are already being used for mathematical reasons

Answer 5

When you buy a car, follow a recipe, or decorate your home, you're using math principles. People have been using these same principles for thousands—even millions—of years, across countries and continents. Whether you're sailing a boat off the coast of Japan or building a house in Peru, you're using math to get things done.


How can math be so universal? First, human beings didn't invent math concepts; we discovered them. Also, the language of math is numbers, not English or German or Russian. If we are well versed in this language of numbers, it can help us make important decisions and perform everyday tasks. Math can help us to shop wisely, buy the right insurance, remodel a home within a budget, understand population growth, or even bet on the horse with the best chance of winning the race.



in daily life:
1. you find using trig often for calculating distances if you are walking or biking.
2. logs for acoustics performance.
3. you use trig for architecture
4. you use probability for so many things...
so much more.
for the poor:
1. like keeping an account of how much money is left.
2. basic math to advance math.
Origins of math:
I have no idea... sorry
Ancient math:
oh man i got so much to give you... well you don't have to look far... look at the:
1. golden ratio
2. Religious connotation of ancient churches.
3. the ratio compared to human body.
4. Le corbusier's modular man ratio
so on... it's so much i would have a whole 3 x 3m room filled with books.


Mathematics is, I can say, the most applied science in our world(engineering, astronomy, electrical pertaining sciences, chemistry( the pH scale is logarithmic), biology (some cell divisions can be exprimed as mathematical functions), medicine(the doctors use mathematical means to evaluate the physical pertaining problems of their patients and instruments). It has always been that way. Some examples will enlighten you.

i can give u some very interesting examples...
The egyptians used trigonometry to determine the houses boundaries affected during the Nile's floods(they took place annually
As you may know, physics is a direct son of mathematics. I would define physics as the application of mathematical rules in real life cases. Everything that pertains to physics pertains in some way to mathematics. So, since the engineers work according to physics, they also must rely on the mathematic sciences.
Mathematics are not an art. It hasn't been created. It has in all it's aspects been discovered by reflexions on the rules of our world. For example if I tell you that 5^5=25, I didn't invent this rule , neither has the first person to use this relation, the only thing invented is the notation of this truth.

could continue forever. But you might remark one thing: you need more complicate calculations to answer more complicated questions.

Your father is coming home from Haiti. He is supposed to take a plane which will take 3 hours to arrive to the States. Your father will take 2 hours to be back home, afterwards. He arrives at 6 p.m. Haiti's time is 1 hour earlier than that at your home. He left a hat your mother offered him by accident in the Haitian airport and needs to tell the company at what time he left it there. What should he tell them?
You see, this isn't a matter of possibility. It's a matter of will. You can't live your life without mathematics...Oh of course you can. If you want to wash it out of your life, you just have to stop buying, being paid, stop using your watch.You just have to stop reasoning, you should stop knowing that you'll need to cross 3 streets to get to school. You might as well stop planning your afternoons with your friends.
Applying math in your daily life is unavoidable, as you can see. But you can choose, to avoid NOT USING MATH. You may solve complicated problems that occur in your daily life, or if they are failing to occur, you can create them. With calculus, many problems helping you to choose things obtaining the maximum or minimun values will help stop not applying mathematics.
I am always sorry for my sister who is loosing money because of change errors in her job. Learning her sum and difference tables a little better will help her stop loosing her pay (she's a cashier).

I felicitate you for your interest in the ways you can change your usual ways by using mathematics in your daily life. You won't always be able to, but you will discover that there are much more occasion to use these useful laws more often then you would think
here ...did that get u enuf pionts???

Answer 6

math is being used in daily life in many ways,we buy things and pay how much we pay and how much balance is to be taken.How much quantity you have to buy/require.You have to teach math to your children.You have to judge the distance between you and the other person/vehicle so that you may not be involved in the accident.While doing work in office you require the knowledge of math.While dealing with the bank,while taking loan while making your savings grow,while paying income tax,and while doing every activity in some way or the other you calculate many things in your mind may be actively or may be passively.
