The motto of studying maths ....is that it capables us to deal with problems of life in a better way. 🤗
I really enjoy maths .......
Hit like whose favourite subject is maths
👇👇
It is better if we teach moral and ethical dilemma and comparision and similarities between different religion and faith..... Wait...wait... isn't it threat to the existence of rich and ideologically corrupt parasite people on earth.... Math is teached to limit the social thinking of child and make him a dumb aas.....Height of idiocracy......
Finally I get someone who also likes math

I worked at a hardware store for years and math really came in handy, especially when calculating areas, perimeter and volume for construction workers, carpenters or for people who were working in their garden.
Ephesians 6:10-18 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; and your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints. The bible is no old book. You have to really let Christ open your eyes; to see the world in shambles. Many people say it's a religion to lock up people in chains, and say it's a rule book.. why? Because people hate hearing the truth, it hurts their flesh, it's hurts their pride, it's exposes on what things have they done..people love this world so much, s*x, money, power, women, supercars.. things of this world. Still trying to find something that can fill that emptiness in your heart. You can't find that in this world.. only in Christ, the bible is no chains, it's a chainbreaker. Breaking your sins into pieces... Repent now, and turn back to the true Lord only.. God bless.

Finally something I can really support that he is saying: methods, tools, and tactics. Learning how to solve math problems establishes brain wiring used in other problem solving that other methods use.
The only thing it taught me was a loss in self confidence and a growing self hate. I never merited from my effort, just low grades and ever growing self insults.

As Lomonosov said: "It is necessary to study mathematics, because it puts the mind in order"
I was homeschooled, and my mom was really busy teaching my 3 sisters, and I had a gaming problem, and so I didn’t watch hardly any of the lectures, or so much book work at all, all through high school, when I went to go get my ged, I was sure I was stupid and stuff; but I was shocked to find out that all the stuff in the test was just stuff I either used all the time with programming, or just stuff you just know, or can figure out if you just think critically..
Maths gives us hope of there is always a solution for a problem 🥰
MATHS IS THE LANGUAGE OF THE UNIVERSE 🌌
there is no solution for everything. cancer is knocking. death is knocking
What about who hate maths yesterday was my board exams result guess what I have passed in my all exams except in maths it hurts a lot literally I cried just cuz of this time wastage subject now I have to give the maths exam again plus learn my matric math also oh god please help me😢

Why taking down formulas in your notebook and learn it then practise the calculation
First solve easy questions then go to difficult
It took me 10 days to understand a topic but it was worth
@@tutsun3240 if I’m not interested in it, it’s easy to get distracted doing something I actually care about and actually matters to me
maybe u need to change ur memorizing style? some people don't forget what they heard, some people don't forget what they wrote on the notebook just 1 time, some people good with numbers. I am a student for 11 years, and i'm seniour anymore. During 11 years, i always though when i wrote something i can memorizing better. After 11 years later i just relazied im not remember what i wrote, i am remember some scenes like photographs. Therefore i can memorize. And i relazied one different thing too, if i want to don't forget something, this thing need to about some special memories to me. Like, history is in my main subjects and im not forget like,
this war (date)
this war reasons
this war results
something important about this war
nope, not like this. I am memorizing some stories about this war, and when i remembered the story every reasons and results so fast. U have to discover ur brain algorithm. And even u don't trust yourself, trust ur brain. Cuz ur brain incredible than u though.
Bro, you dont need to memorize ANYTHING for math. Simply understand the formulas
Agreed. It never seems to..."stick". I'm trying to go to trade school for electrician and math is killing me.
I wish more teachers would explain this concept in this way. I hated math in high school. In college I couldn't get enough math.

Only if you have high iq then its enjoyable
I think he meant during the process of looking for solutions to equations, therein is where the mind rewires itself.
Math is a beautiful language.
MATH is not a language, it's a logical subject.
@@sintheetathe fact you can pull out a random equation and the average person can’t understand it at all pretty much makes it another language. It’s not them being ignorant it’s literally different Greek symbols and rules that you have to learn, just like in learning a language.
@@ProfShibe Yeah, but math is much more than a language. As said in a previous post, it’s a logical subject and this is its defining trait. That it can be written in a common language is great for quick universal understanding, but it wasn’t the case for centuries, yet the conclusions are the same everywhere.
Ikr
math is so interesting and beautiful, im fascinated by how literally everything is somehow based on math when you analyze it at a microscopic level. math is literally the laws to the universe and life. its so fascinating
Have you heard about data science 😂😂

He is right, I know this is true because I have already forgotten all the stuff I learned. The only thing I learned was to create insults against my self.
The best part is that no one tells you that math is important. It’s all numbers until you realize that it’s important
I hate and love math at the same time, because the thinking hurts extremely but i love that feeling when i solve something dificult. But i hate when im stuck for hours on something just because some banal numeric error.

Dear Doctor Tyson, thank you so much for this!
My method was procrastinate lookup answers throw some wrong ones in make it look confusing but overall passing.
Math is in every step we take in life.
I so want to understand maths but I can’t yet find a way to understand or learn. I’ll keep on trying because it’s the only finite truth.
Maths is the most important in the field of accounting and technology... so learning it is necessary... Things like area, circumference, radius, diameter, volume, speed, time... all calculations in math is necessary part of our lives... and maths is the integral part of physics...

I remember learning how to complete the square as a polynomial solution technique. "I will never need to use this for the rest of my life." In graduate school I was taught a trick in solving a linear algebra differential equation problem in Economics. I recognized it and finally figured out we are just completing the square. My appreciating algebra 1 from freshman year of high school moment.
Yes you are a square
I think when people say math is pointless there either in college or highschool taking harder classes
"Communication is a process through which a person shares knowledge....and Maths is a process through which universe shares it's knowledge"
It's amazing how few understand this truth.
This is so true... I feel like I understand logic and philosophy/religion better after I really dialed in on my math
Maths makes you sharp.!!
Absolutely right!!
I feel the same
School subjects are more for helping you develop skills that will make you a great worker. The math is one of the methods to do so
Teachers need to hammer this point onto students.
I never felt like they did (or i just didn't pay attention).
Maybe that would have given motivation because it always felt like I was learning this stuff just because.
There was no reason given to learning these topics other than to just pass school.
Bro can you please tell us that where do you find such type of clips on the internet .They are awesome please tell us
So its not about how you learn but skills you develope in order to solve the problem because you may never see the problem the rest of your life but you will see other problems where this method and tools will become immensely valuable for you
Much of my engineering education was learning how to learn and learning how to solve problems. Computers do the equations and number crunching , but you learn when to use them, how, and why.
I’m now majoring in Data analysis and Machine Learning and I am now realizing how important math really is
I can’t tell you how many people online say school should teach getting ready for life instead of math and other “useless” things, first off they do teach getting ready for life in high school, and though they claim they never use it, they use their math, reading, and writing skills all the time, and social studies is my personal favorite class because we learn about our history and even though some may not like it it’s best to know, while some stuff in science may seem useless it’s honestly best to know how the world works, don’t know why these subjects get hated for being “useless”
This is why it’s important to have good math teachers. I knew math through out school, but my epilepsy made it difficult to remember but manageable. I was still learning it until one of my math teachers refused to abide by my accommodations and I had to switch to online. All of the math I knew went out the window, most of the problem solving stuck with me but to learn more math I need the basics and I am still trying to recover from all those forgotten basics because of a bad teacher.😔
Thanks DuoMath for getting me back on track
I am a "dumb electrician" just a field worker, yet I use basic trig every day of my life. The unit circle has been IMMENSELY helpful to my career, in fact I was running a crew of 6+ people as an apprentice because of my knowledge of math and hence my ability to bend conduit.
I was also able to use trig to allow us to precisely aim airport apron lighting, from the ground, before the poles were ever erected. All angles including both x and y axis were done from a horizontal position on the ground and transferred to the air. Saved tons of money for not having yo made the adjustments later when the fixtures were 125' in the air.
I sucked at math in high school. Got an offer to work/study abroad in argentina for a couple years. I immersed myself with the people and became fluent in castellano (argentinas version of spanish for those who aren’t aware). And when I came back I was really good at understanding math. I’m not sure if learning a new language unlocked a mathematical/logical side of my brain that wasn’t unlocked before, but it was a huge shock for me. I barely passed algebra 1 in high school. Now I tutor pre cal to under grads.
I’ve learned only long enough to get rid of obstacles, once the obstacle is gone so does the other math.
Agreed
Shortly after college, I realized on my own that you can use factoring to multiply regular numbers. Like expanding 23x17 as (20+3)x(10+7) and use the FOIL method
First 20x10=200
Outer 20x7=140
Inner 3x10=30
Last 3x7=21
200+140+30+21=391
It's easier to do mentally than the usual way.
Cool, or I can whip out my calculator and solve it. Why are u using less efficient strategies? When we don't know a word, do we look it up on the dictionary? No we bust out our phone and Google it.
@@jk90z Sometimes I'll do it just to stay sharp, to prove to myself that I still can. Being able to hold concepts is a skill that improves other areas of the brain. Use it or lose it. I want to be able to teach my young relatives this method when they're old enough, because the schools sure as hell wont. It would've helped me a lot as a kid.
@@Mr12Relic there's nothing wrong with learning math, but to say it prepares you for solving problems in the future is not totally true. Math teaches you a step by step method to solving problem. There's one maybe two ways to solving a problem. One example could be like completing the square or using the quadratic formula. Irl, there are dozens of ways to solve problems using your own creative minds. Instead of using math to prep for solving problems in the future, they should give kids real life problems and see what they come up with in order to deal with it. Cuz the reality of math is u either know what to do or u don't, I can't just make up a formula to solve a problem. Irl though, u can be as creative as u want. Not to mention, the amount of stress it puts on kids. So is it really effective for prepping kids for problems in the future? I don't really think so.
@@jk90z Take your straw man somewhere else. Where did I say anything about future problems?
@@Mr12Relic well I'm just staring a point. I'm curious, do u agree?

Maths is a language to know the unknown. Great things are done with maths and much more is yet to come ❤️.
Truly agree to every word...
Late but useful i used to think exactly like this in school time and i used to console myself by varioua reasons😅✨️.I hope many like me would be there😅😂.
🧮Math was my favorite subject in high school. It fits my analytical "it is either on or off, no in between - no gray area" personality 😂
Same. I hate literature, arts and other subjects where there is no single correct answer.
It is a heart of science
The degree represents the discipline and ability to learn.
My grandfather taught me linear algebra when I was 9, then I taught myself calculus in 4th grade. When I got to highschool I had already completed all available math classes so I didn’t have to take any 😅 same as my grandad haha. Anyway the point of this story is that we both have the ability to learn just about anything very fast, learning to solve complex math problems, or even better learning how to teach about them will boost your problem solving skills and learning ability drastically
A similar argument holds for people who study "Real Analysis", undergrad course which overly stresses on proofs of why fundamental math is correct. It's that rigor you learn while doing it and not the theorem in itself. You'll probably never think about a+b=b+a is useful to prove but the skill of proving things is what you learn
I agree the feeling of never having to reuse Trigonometry/ Geometry after my High school.
But have been finding myself using the techniques of problem solving I used to resolve my problems.
I work in Kitchen as Chef and use the techniques to solve some problems that can't be solved normally or thinking only within parameters of Food Production work
I'd still prefer to learn how to do Taxes, learn more about insurance, focus on what I wanna do when I get into college, more specific stuff
You can, and you'll need some maths for all of that
Pick up a book on economics or the tax laws in your country and start reading. Do you really need to spoonfed information?
This perspective ♥️
Even though I used to think that but then I got into economics, I found to my surprise that it is based on maths In fact it is theoritical interpretation of mathematical proofs
Yeah...It is. It's much of an Theoretical Branch of Maths like Programming Languages.
I hope (a+b)² is gonna help me in my financial crisis
If you can solve that, keeping going till you're in a good college, get a good job and that'll definitely help you never get into a financial crisis
This is so true. But with everything. Not just maths.
Learn as much as you can about everything. And do it while you're young. I wish I had.
I highly recommend at least one computer programming course too. Traditional stuff like C++ , heck even "GW Basic" my first language.
Absolutely
So true!! Brilliantly explained, 👍
People have different gifts and passion. Forcing students to learn a particular subjects doesn't really make sense, cause you are killing the passion and curiosity they have for other subjects.

He's right. Walking diagonal is always shorter than walking around a corner.
I literally just got done with algebra and it changed my whole philosophy on math now it’s fun tomorrow I want to go outside with my mom and dad and do math experiments with algebra and geometry… just for fun I might not ever need it but it’s fun to do
Whether Maths is easy or tough it depends on how deeply you get into it
For example, if you just go through Class 10 Trigonometry then you will love it, one or two questions maybe unsolvable by you rest you will crack, even during sleep.
But if you are going with Calculus 🤐 (JEE calculus is good enough to make you shit in your pants and let you hate it btw).
Then you know how Maths sucks
Nope, I love maths more than ever after jee. Before 10th the focus was not on finding the correct answer but on how it was done in the books. Jee gives you freedom to use whichever way you like to solve their given problems and I love that about jee. Calculus is actually my absolute favourite topic till date and nothing even comes close
Mathematics is the Queen of science

Math makes you smarter. Every problem you solve is training your mind to become stronger
Well said and received!!!
I totally get what Tyson is saying, but when he mentioned trig identities, I got precalc flashbacks. I appreciate that learning math rewires your brain in useful ways, but that doesn't stop learning every identity, their specific use cases, their derived alternate versions, THEIR use cases, the underlying logic of how and why they work, and why they matter and how to use them, from being frustrating beyond belief and hope. This is coming from someone who was never great (or all that good, really) at math, but I feel like I'm not alone on this. Math is hard, and some people (like me) struggle just to get by. I appreciate that it's doing good things for us cognitively, but it sure is frustrating as hell, and I don't blame anyone who gives up one bit
That’s a great way of looking at it. It wasn’t until Calc 3 that I discovered this ideology!

His voice brought me back to the hundreds of khan academy videos I was forced to watch
aside from the fact that mathematics in life is indispensable even for the smallest things like calculating the cost of two foods we buy at the supermarket for example but this man is totally right at school we learn a lot of things that it is obvious that we will never apply them in everyday life but just the fact of using our brain to solve and memorize things is very important there are tons of reasons that we study not for study but for train our brain
Unfortunately for me learning trig at school was just being told which buttons to press on the calculator in which order without any real understanding of the process or function of each button. If it was first explained what trigonometry is and why it was so important and then how it actually worked im sure I wouldve been interested and found it much easier to learn.
