What is Mathematics or Defination of Mathematics?
Answers
Mathematics is the science that deals with the logic of shape, quantity and arrangement. Math is all around us, in everything we do. It is the building block for everything in our daily lives, including mobile devices, architecture (ancient and modern), art, money, engineering, and even sports.
Since the beginning of recorded history, mathematic discovery has been at the forefront of every civilized society, and in use in even the most primitive of cultures. The needs of math arose based on the wants of society. The more complex a society, the more complex the mathematical needs. Primitive tribes needed little more than the ability to count, but also relied on math to calculate the position of the sun and the physics of hunting.
Answer:
Mathematics includes the study of such topics as quantity, structure, space, and change. It has no generally accepted definition. Mathematicians seek and use patterns to formulate new conjectures; they resolve the truth or falsity of conjectures by mathematical proof.
Euclid's axioms :
- First Axiom: Things which are equal to the same thing are also equal to one another.
- Second Axiom: If equals are added to equals, the whole are equal.
- Third Axiom: If equals be subtracted from equals, the remainders are equal.
- Fourth Axiom: Things which coincide with one another are equal to one another.
- Fifth Axiom: The whole is greater than the part.
