Applications of trigonometry |
2008-05-24 |
|
Mohita pose la question : I have got a project in the school and i am not getting anything about the topic. The topic is that we need to find the application of trigonometry on any one of the real life situations using 3-dimensional figures. I mean how can trigonometry can be used in real life situations like navigation, architecture, survey, astronomy etc. Penny Nom lui répond. |

Out of school applications of Pythagoras Theorem |
2008-01-23 |

Laura pose la question : Hi,
I am currently working on a math summative in which I have to choose a real life subject and relate it back to the material in my grade 12 math class. I find the history and discovery behind the Pythagorean Theorem and Identity very interesting, but I have yet to find a real-life application of the equations. Yes, I know they are used for finding distances, heights etc., but realistically, how many people actually use it in those situations? Very few. I was hoping for a new application. Is the pythagorean theorem (sin^2x + cos^2x = 1) even applicable? Thank you,

Applications of sequences and series |
2007-08-27 |

Trish pose la question : I'm a grade 12 learner working on a math project based on sequences and series. I'd like to know the different types of sequences and series such as fibonacci, fourier, farey, etc.
I've already used the Fibonacci Sequence and Harmonic Series
and need two more.
The simpler the sequence or series type the better.
I'd also like to know in which non-mathematical areas use sequences and series
and how.
Areas such as engineering or science. Penny Nom lui répond. |

The focus of a parabola |
2006-10-01 |
|
Lily pose la question : I have a mathematical assignment which includes applications of parabolas, hyperbolas and ellipses in the real world. I have been searching the internet and now I am ware that most of the applications of parabolas have a connection with what people call "the focus". However, I do not think I clearly understand what "the focus" of a parabola is. Would you please explain it to me? Penny Nom lui répond. |

Parabolas in life |
2000-12-03 |
|
Ashley pose la question : I am a student and my teacher recently gave us the assignment of writing a portfolio on parabolas in life and finding examples, three to be in fact, only we have to go into detail about only one. We have been instructed to include such terms as: axis of symmetry, completing the square, parabola, quadratic formula, standard form (vertex form) and vertex. We also must include in our detailed example an equation of the parabola and very specific details, PLEASE HELP! Harley Weston lui répond. |

|
Jane Ann Musgrove pose la question : As a teacher of mathematics, I am always asked "Where will we use this in the real world?". I am seeking ideas/sites via the internet where students can find answers to this type of question. Can you help me? To be more specific, right now I am interested in finding careers where the employees would use the concepts of "Radicals", "Matrices", and "Logarithms". This information will be used by students to make presentations to the class on their findings from internet searches. Harley Weston lui répond. |
