Does the fact that a circle can not be quadrable depress or annoy you in any way?
Because I'm thinking of starting a social group about it.
Yes, there is a point to this thread. This is a topic on math. What are some of your favorite math theorems? How useful do you find math in your everyday life? Do you think learning the various mathematical areas (geometry, calculus, algebra) were useful to you in a practical way or in any kind of abstract way? Do you value your math knowledge? |

addition and subtraction is all I need. Maybe even multiplication.
My check adds money to my bank account, bills subtract it. Investments multiply it. |

It's not his fault. They taught it at 8:00 am in the morning.

In my personal opinion, mathematics is one of the keys to understanding the mysteries of life. With mathematics, you can predict the future and prove the basic facts of life. Mathematics is the main ingredient of a healthy mind. That is why I studied the **** out of math in school and continue to study in it today. I am not a math genius by any means, but I am an advocate of the old saying, "If you don't use it, you lose it."
To any teenagers out there: take as many math courses as you possibly can. You will not regret this decision. To any parents out there: encourage your children to take as many math courses as they possibly can. |
