2. INTRODUCTION
2
“If people do not believe that mathematics is simple, it is only
because they do not realize how complicated life is.”
3. INTRODUCTION
Mathematics is a methodical application of matter. It is so said because the
subject makes a man methodical or systematic. Mathematics makes our life
orderly and prevents chaos. Certain qualities that are nurtured by
mathematics are power of reasoning, creativity, abstract or spatial thinking,
critical thinking, problem solving ability and even effective communication
skills.
Mathematics is the cradle of all creations. Be it a cook or a farmer, a
carpenter or a mechanic, a shopkeeper or a doctor, an engineer or a
scientist, a musician or a magician, everyone needs mathematics in their
day-to-day life. Even insects use mathematics in their everyday life for
existence.
Snails make their shells, spiders design their webs, and bees build
hexagonal combs. There are countless examples of mathematical patterns in
nature's fabric.
“Pure mathematics is, in its way, the poetry of logical ideas” 3
4. It is a tool in our hands to make our life simpler and easier.
The present age is one of skill-development and innovations.
The more mathematical we are in our approach, the more
successful we will be.
Math has become an inseparable part of our lives and
whether we work in an office or spend most of our time at
home, each one of us uses math as a part of our everyday
life. No matter where we are as well as whatever we are
doing, math is always there whether you notice it or not.
“To learn, you must want to be taught.”

5. IMPORTANCE OF MATHS IN
OUR LIFE
5
“The laws of nature are but the mathematical thoughts of God.”
6. IMPORTANCE OF MATHS IN OUR
LIFE
Consider a man going for groceries shopping. He would need
to add up the total value of the things he bought and needs to
calculate how much change should he ask for back. All that
involves math.
It is also useful in calculating environmental statistics. It helps
us to calculate the environment condition namely monsoon
arrival, earthquake forecasting, heavy rainfalls ,tsunamis etc.
Mathematics has many important practical applications in
every facet of life, including computers, space exploration,
engineering, physics, and economics and commerce.
For example, mathematicians knew about binary arithmetic ,
using only the digits 0 and 1, for yrs before this knowledge
became practical in computers to describe switches that are
either off (0) or on (1).
“Go down deep enough into anything and you will
find mathematics. ” 6
7. The laws of probability led to our ability to predict behaviors of
large populations by sampling.
The importance of mathematics lies in its application in daily life.
Its applications includes in the fields of science, technology,
economics, business, commerce and computer design,
architecture and even in the life of a common man.
On a basic level you need to be able to count, multiply, subtract
and divide. It is present in different forms whenever we pick up the
phone, manage the money, travel to some place, play soccer,
meet new friends; unintentionally in all these things mathematics is
involved.
“Life is good for only two things, discovering mathematics
and teaching mathematics.”

8. IN COOKING-
8
While cooking, we need to add the required amount of ingredients in
right proportion to make our food tasty. For example-
A chocolate cake requires 4-5 eggs,2 cups sugar, some chocolates
etc in right proportion.
“The more you know, the less sure you are.”
9. GARDENING
While planting seeds we have to make rows and columns before
planting them. Sometimes we have to calculate the area of the
field for sowing seeds.
9
“ If two wrongs don't make a right, try three.”
10. BANKING
In bank people deposit their money and lend money from
banks for any purpose, the interest is calculated on the basis
of mathematical formulas.
With some knowledge of simple and compound interest we
can grow our money.
10
"Obvious" is the most dangerous word in mathematics.
12. 12
In our ay to day life we have to calculate the area of any
geometrical shapes like when we whitewash our buildings
,purchase a land or for construction purposes etc If you want to
calculate how much paint, wallpaper, flooring, carpeting or tile you
have to buy for your project you must know the area of wall and floor.
“Mathematics is made of 50 percent formulas, 50 percent proofs,
and 50 percent imagination.”
13. ARTS AND FASHION
Math is also used by artists to draw geometric patterns on
fashionable clothes. They also use math for calculating the amount
and cost of fabric required. Artist also use geometry to design
patterns for house ‘s decoration and for clothes.
13
“In mathematics you don't understand things. You just get
used to them.”
14. ART AND ARCHITECTURE
14
Architects use math to calculate the square footage of
rooms and buildings, to lay out floor space dimensions
and to calculate the required space for other areas such as
parking, plumbing, etc. The famous example of geometry in
architecture is Eiffel tower. The famous car company
BMW’s logo is a fine example of geometry in art.
“ Measure what is measurable, and make measurable what is
not so.”
15. CONCLUSION
The uses of mathematics in one’s life is infinite . the use of
mathematics is unquestionable for every individual. Being the
queen of all sciences and the king of all arts it offers a wonderful
approach to us to be successful in life.

“It is easier to square the circle than to get round a
Mathematician.”
