Math and science have always been closely intertwined.

Mathematics has long been a language of science, enabling scientists to


express ideas and make predictions about physical phenomena. It is
essential for describing the patterns of nature, understanding theories
of the universe, and developing new technologies.
Over the millennia, mathematicians have developed a wide range
of mathematical knowledge and tools that enable scientists to
accurately explain, predict, and control the physical world. At its core,
mathematics is an abstract language that allows scientists to speak with
each other using equations and formulas. From describing the
trajectories of planets to determining the properties of matter,
mathematics is the backbone for describing the physical phenomena.
The most fundamental branches of mathematics used in science
are algebra, geometry, calculus and linear algebra. Algebra provides
methods to solve equations and relate unknown quantities using
variables. Geometry helps analyze figures and shapes in two and three
dimensions. Calculus is a powerful tool to analyze functions and
discover trends. Finally, linear algebra provides a way to describe
vectors and matrices.
These four fundamental branches of mathematics help scientists
explore the physical world. For example, physicists rely heavily on
algebraic equations to solve problems and figure out the properties of
matter. In chemistry, equations often involve
