Mathematics is used in different fields, all around the world For different purposes in different forms like shapes

,percentage, fractions, numbers , symmetryetc..


Examples: Numbers :Telephones , Lockers, houses etc Shapes : Buildings , Frames ,Dice etc Fractions : Fractions of area , distribution etc Symmetry : Symmetry in our body parts , Eiffel tower..etc Percentages :Percentages are used in banks, results ,shops etc

HISTORY OF MATHEMATICS
HOW DID MATHEMATICS BEGIN???
Before 1000 B.C. Counting is but the earliest form of mathematics. It was first a simple device for accounting for quantity. However, this is so basic, even primitive, that it cannot be considered as either a subject or a science. We are looking for sources of mathematical thought in human activity. Where did Mathematics Start? These sources come in the form of carvings, inscriptions or manuscripts. Evidence of this kind have four countries of origin, all dating to similar times. They are: India Egypt Mesopotamia China

THE LIST OF FEW GREAT MATHEMATICIANS WHO HAVE CONTRIBUTED TO MATHEMATICS ARE
..

THALES EUCLID PYTHAGORAS

APPLICATION OF THALES THEOREM

One Practical Application of Thales Theorem


A simple but practical application of Thales Theorem is to find the center of a circle, assuming you can draw a couple of right-angle triangles over it.

Geometry is used in art and architecture.


The water tower consists of a cone, a cylinder, and a hemisphere. Its volume can be calculated using solid geometry.

1. If you are a mathematician, you'd be using it from time to time or teaching it to kids. 2. If you are engineer or electrician you could use it to estimate heights or find lengths of various things. 3. If you are a physicist you may need to use it to calculate vectors in collisions - of subatomic particles. 4. If you do forensics or motor vehicle major accident investigation you might need it to calculate vectors of bigger things.

The place-value system, first seen in the 3rd century Bakhshali Manuscript, was clearly in place in his work. While he did not use a symbol for zero, the French mathematician Georges Ifrah explains that knowledge of zero was implicit in Aryabhata's place-value system as a place holder for the powers of ten with null coefficients[11] Aryabhata worked on the approximation for pi ( ), "Add four to 100, multiply by eight, and then add 62,000. By this rule the circumference of a circle with a diameter of 20,000 can be approached." [13]This implies that the ratio of the circumference to the diameter is ((4 + 100) 8 + 62000)/20000 = 62832/20000 = 3.1416, which is accurate to five significant

APPLICATION OF ARYABHATTAS INVENTIONS..

Through the translated Latin version of the Aryabhattiya, the WORLD learned how to calculate the areas of triangles, volumes of spheres as well as how to find out the square and cube root.

2.RAMANUJAN
He was born on 22na of December 1887 in a small village of Tanjore district, Madras. He failed in English in Intermediate, so his formal studies were stopped but his self-study of mathematics continued He sent a set of 120 theorems to Professor Hardy of Cambridge. As a result he invited Ramanujan to England.Ramanujan showed that any big number can be written as sum of not more than four prime numbers. He showed that how to divide the number into two or more squares or cubes. when Mr Littlewoods came to see Ramanujan in taxi number 1729

Ramanujan said that 1729 is the smallest number which can be written in the form of sum of cubes of two numbers in two ways, i.e. 1729 = 93 + 103 = 13 + 123 since then the number 1729 is called Ramanujans number. In Dec 2011, in recognition of his contribution to mathematics, the Government of India declared that Ramanujan's birthday (22 December) should be celebrated every year as National Mathematics Day, and also declared 2012 the National Mathematical Year
