    THE NATURE OF MATHEMATICS
    MATHEMATICS IN
    THE MODERN
    WORLD

    What is Mathematics?
    the study of the relationships among numbers, quantities,
    and shapes.
    enhances our critical thinking skills, reasoning, spatial
    thinking and creativity.
    helps organize patterns and regularities in the world.

    SYMMETRY
    The quality of being made up of exactly similar parts facing
    each other or around an axis.
    A law or operation in which a physical property or process
    has an equivalence in two or more directions.
    Correct or pleasing proportion of the parts of a thing.

    TYPES OF SYMMETRY
    Translational symmetry
    Rotational symmetry
    Reflexive symmetry
    Glide symmetry
    MATHEMATICS IN
    THE MODERN

    Types of Symmetry: Translational


    If an object is moved from
    one position to another,
    with the same orientation
    in the forward and
    backward motion
    MATHEMATICS IN
    THE MODERN
    WORLD

    Types of Symmetry: Rotational


    When an object is rotated
    in a particular direction,
    around a point
    MATHEMATICS IN

    Types of Symmetry: Reflexive


    Type of symmetry where
    one half of the object
    reflects the other half of
    the object
    AKA: Mirror Symmetry
    MATHEMATICS IN
    THE MODERN
    WORLD

    Types of Symmetry: Glide


    The combination of both translation
    and reflection transformations
    Commutative in nature and the
    change in combination’s order does
    not alter the output of the glide
    reflection.

    of symmetry
    Send pictures on our GC with a name on the picture itself.
    You will be given 10 mins to submit your output.

    Fibonacci Numbers
    A series of numbers in which each number (Fibonacci number) is the
    sum of the two preceding numbers. The simplest is the series
    1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, etc.
    Discovered by Leonardo Pisano (Italian Full Name)
