1. The French and Indian War Was Fought in the 1750s and Other "Useless" Facts July 27, 2011 "When are we ever going to use this in our real lives?" is a question many students are known to ask their teachers when trying to memorize a certain fact or understand a particular concept. While it’s true that many students will not use the Pythagorean theorem in their careers, and while it’s unlikely that they are frequently going to be asked to recite the preamble to the Constitution in their adult lives, there are underlying skills and concepts involved in mastering these skills that will serve students well long after they graduate, even if they don’t realize that at the time.High school...

2. Free Pythagoras Android application December 14, 2010 Mark's crative labs have just released a new Andorid app. It's a Pythagorean theorem app. The name says it all. It's an app for calculating the lenghts of triangle sides. This software is free and very, and I mean very useful. It's special because it doesn't only show the result, it shows the procedure, too. This is good because some kids don't understand Pythagorean theorem and with this app they can learn it on a fun and easy way because they have the procedure. They write the information that they know and the prograam shows them who did it calculate it and shows the result. Thi... (read more) Author: Marko Markich

3. Mathematics Degree Online September 24, 2010 Most people agree that fractions are a bugbear in mathematics. Wherever they rear their ugly heads, they wreak havoc on both novice and expert alike. So how can we show that the non-terminating repeating decimal 0.999... is exactly equal to the number 1? That is what we are going to explore right now. The arithmetic is not enough to share with mathematical relationships, such as the Pythagorean Theorem that the sum of the squares of the lengths of the shorter sides of a triangle the square of the length of the long side corresponding to states to overcome. Wouldn't it be nice if you... (read more) Author: Willis jeff Jeff

4. Favorable Chocolate Candy December 12, 2008 As a matter of fact, you can use chocolate candy to help you get better grades on a test or just better grades in general. The smell and taste of chocolate candy is a strong one that it can be used as a mental marker to help you remember things you normally wouldn't easily be able to. As an example, a study conducted on a dog where a scientist named Pavlov taught the dog to associate the ringing of a bell with feeding time. He'd ring the bell and feed the dog. In time, the ringing of that bell caused the dog to salivate. That study was a major breakthrough in our brains work; even though it wa... (read more) Author: Nelson M. Paran

5. Online Geometry Tutoring - Most Effective and Productive Way to Tackle Geometry March 11, 2008 Geometry is a part of mathematics concerned with questions of size, shape, and relative position of figures and with properties of space. Geometry is one of the oldest sciences where the answers to basic questions are only approximations. Geometry which is concerned with measurements, areas, and volumes, originated as a practical science. Hard to learn formulas for lengths, areas and volumes, such as Pythagorean Theorem, circumference and area of a circle, area of a triangle, volume of a cylinder, sphere, and a pyramid are all part of geometry. The study of geometry gives answers to ... (read more) Author: Avinash Smith
