Mathematics In Life Hi everyone! Today marks 1st day of March. We're now on the third month of year 2022. This might be another challenge in our lives. Also, today is my first time to publish my first article in this online platform. I am a bisaya from Philippines, married and blessed with two kids. I am working at DepEd as Math Teacher for almost 9 years. You know the life of being a teacher is uneasy task especially nowadays. Our lives rotates from enconding, printing, distributing, gathering, collecting, checking, computing and many more. That cycle repeats from first quarter to fourth quarter.

From the title itself, Mathematics In Life, is Mathematics really important or applicable in our lives? No doubt, the answer is definitely Yes. We debated for this with my wife, an English educator because she insisted that English is more important and applicable than Mathematics. Anyway, that's not my topic. Like science, mathematics has also different branches. When we study mathematics, we not only become a mathematicians. Most students (because not all) who love mathematics will pursue their studies to any courses with more problems to solve like engineer, statistician, accountancy, and the like. Though mathematics is considered as the most difficult subject of among learning areas, still many students learn to love numbers. As we can see things around us, there are many objects that are represented by Mathematics. As engineers do, they could be able to connect one place to another by constructing bridges. As far as my knowledge is concerned, engineers apply the what so called Triangle Congruency to make bridges firmer and stronger 💪.

If you have tried to play kite flying anywhere, don't you know that it's also being applied with triangle congruency? What is triangle congruency? Basically, two triangles are congruent if their corresponding sides and angles are congruent. (Murag nagdiscuss man si sir hihihi) In making a kite using broomsticks, if you have noticed there are two triangles formed which are having the same sides and angles (congruent). It helps the kite flying high. In the field of statistics, another branch of Mathematics, lot of works being done everyday. Even in gathering data of number of Covid patients and number of recovery and deaths who were affected by the virus were recorded statistically. Nevertheless, statisticians keep records of the data in a certain agency or group for data analysis. Talking about an accounting, it also involves numbers on how to make the financial statements of a company or business. It's a work of an accountant to make income statement, balance sheet, and cash flow statements to help the managers or even the owner of the business to see the status and performance of the company. How can other people say that Mathematics is useless or meaningless? In fact, when we go to a market and buy something there are mathematical operations that involve when we add all the cost or expenses and even receiving the change after subtracting your money from the total expenses. If we do not know the basic operations of Mathematics, somehow will be cheated from the seller. Finally, the learning of Mathematics is very useful in our lives how much more its significant when we applied it to real life situation. In bridge, there is math for we can not travel to other places without it. In a company or business, there is math for we can not gain profit if we don't apply any mathematical operations. In our lives, there is mathematics as well for we can not move without money. Above all, when God who is a greatest mathematician made all the creations on Earth 🌎there is Mathematics when He created the world within six days and rested for the seventh day. Thank you for your valuable time in reading this. Hope you learn something the importance of Mathematics in our lives.
