Math in Science and Engineering

Math Powers Science

Scientific experiments and engineering designs rely on math—especially algebra, geometry, and measurement.

Real-World Connections

  • Physics: Use formulas to calculate speed, distance, or force.
  • Chemistry: Measure quantities and calculate concentrations.
  • Engineering: Design strong structures using geometric principles.

Why It Matters

From building bridges to launching rockets, math helps us solve big challenges and invent new things.

Examples

  • Using the formula \(d = rt\) to find how far a car travels in 3 hours at 60 mph.

  • Calculating the volume of a tank needed to store water.
