ppt on use of maths in our daily life works like cooking, navigating, gaurding, sports, shopping,etc

2. MATHS
Mathematics is defined as the science which deals with
logic of shape, quantity and arrangement.
During ancient times , the Egyptians used maths and
complex mathematic equations like geometry and algebra.
Math is a part of our lives, whether we clean the house,
make supper or mow the lawn.
Wherever you go, whatever you do, you are using math
daily without even realizing it. It just comes naturally.
Maths is a universal language in that it is a language
understood in all countries.

3. Uses of Maths in Daily Life
Cooking
Sports
Gardening
Banking and Shopping
Navigation
Finding distance and length
Architecture

4. Cooking
(Practical knowledge of Ratio and Proportion)
 Making coffee, tea, milk- the quantity, we require the
knowledge of ratio and proportion
 Cooking food -breakfast, lunch, dinner needs clear
knowledge of proportion for preparation to have good
taste- more salt, chilly etc.
 While cooking a recipe, we need to have a check on the
amount of ingredient and correct measure unless our
recipe will result in a blunder.

5. Sports
(Practical knowledge of Probability, Mensuration and Statistics)
 The mathematical concept can be applied when one wants to
comment about the game.
 When we toss in game, probability is used as there is an
equal chance of getting head or tail.
 Referees and coaches make calls which are based on time.
 We can compare failure and success rate by collecting data of
all the past game played. This can only be done using
some aspects of maths.
 To make the field of correct measure, we need
good knowledge of Mensuration.

6. Finding distance and length
(Practical knowledge of Trigonometry)
Maths concepts are used to find or calculate:-
 height of towers, mountains and tides in oceans
 distance of the shore from a point in the sea
and between celestial bodies.
 structural load, roof slopes, ground surfaces and many
other aspects, including sun shading and light angles

7. Navigation
(Practical knowledge of Coordinate Geometry )
 Concept is widely used while working with graphic
designing software.
 We often use it to navigate a city or to locate objects in a
grid.
 When geo caching, we use latitude and longitude.
 Astronomers (and amateurs) use sky coordinates to
locate objects of interest.

8. Banking and Shopping
(Practical knowledge of Percentage and Interest )
 We visit supermarkets to buy items, purchasing decisions
require some understanding of budgets and the cost.
 Transaction of money
 Stocks and Bonds
 EMI, Loan, Interest paid on loan, interest paid by the
bank, etc.

9. Gardening
(Practical knowledge of Mensuration )
 Even doing something as mundane as gardening requires
a basic math skill.
 If we need to plant or sow new seeds or seedlings you
need to make a row or count them out or even make
holes.
 Measuring skills is always needed, and calculations of the
essence when doing something new in the garden.

10. Architecture
(Practical knowledge of Mensuration, Geometry and Symmetry)
 A water tower and many other structures include many solid
shapes whose volume can be calculated through geometry.
 Symmetrical and geometrical concepts have been applied in
the construction of some famous monuments such as Taj
Mahal, Eiffel Tower etc.
 Areas of differently sized and shaped lands can be found
through the application of area formulas
 'The Pythagoras Theorem' is used to measure of size for
painting a building or finding the shortest route to a particular
location.
