Building with Math

Engineering and design rely on math to make things work and look great. Whether it's designing a bridge or creating a video game, geometry, measurement, and algebra are essential tools.

What You Can Do

  • Use the Pythagorean Theorem to check if a corner is square.
  • Calculate the volume of materials needed for a project.
  • Plan transformations to rotate or reflect objects in a game design.

Math brings creative ideas to life and solves real-world problems!

Examples

  • Designing a ramp with the correct angle for accessibility.

  • Measuring the amount of paint needed to cover a wall using area calculations.
