MATHEMATICS IN THE

MODERN WORLD

LECTURE NO. 1
PATTERNS AND
REGULARITIES IN THE
WORLD AS
ORGANIZED BY
MATHEMATICS Dr. BENJIE C. OSITA
MISSION

To provide equitable access to


learning
through relevant, innovative,
industry-sensitive
and environment-conscious
academic programs and services.
VISION

To be a model institution of learning


where relevant knowledge is acquired
and
skills are developed in response to the
needs of the global community.
GRADING SYSTEM
Prelim Term + Midterm Period + Semifinal Term + Final term =

Added Grades / 4

60% - Activities (Assignments, Recitations,


Seatworks)
Performance Tasks (Quizzes, Reporting, Projects, Case
Study

40% - Prelim Exam, Midterm Exam, Semifinal Exam, Final Exam


CLASSROOM ETIQUETTE
1. Take responsibility for your education – study hard,
focus on your education not in your work because online
modality of education is given by the government for
the students because we are in pandemic situation and
for the students to give their full time in studying NOT
in working.

2. Attend every class – be in Google Meeting 10 minutes


before the time of the class. After 10 minutes of being
late in the class proper, you will not be allowed to be in
the classroom because you will not only distracting your
classmates but most especially your professor.
CLASSROOM ETIQUETTE
3. Do not dominate other students' opportunity to learn by
asking too many questions. - It is good to ask questions
and make comments, but if you dominate the class time
with too many questions and/or comments, the instructor
and other students cannot participate in class discussions.
When asking questions and making comments, keep them
related to the discussion at hand.
4. Respect your professor. - Openly challenging the
instructor's knowledge or authority in the classroom is not
appropriate. If you take issue with the instructor's
information or instructional methods, make sure that your
comments are made without confrontation or antagonism.
You may want to discuss your issues with her or him
privately.
Mathematics in the Modern World
Objectives :

1. Identify patterns in nature and


regularities
2. Learn the importance of
mathematics in one’s life
3. Argue about the nature of mathematics, what
it is, how it is expressed, represented, and used.
In your own
ideas, what is
Mathematics?
The Nature of Mathematics
• It distinguishes expressions from sentences

• It deals with ideas translated to objects and concepts


created by humans

• Underscores the explorations of patterns in nature and


in the environment

• It helps organize patterns and regularities in the world

• It is used in the technology, business, medicine, natural


data and sciences, machine learning and construction
What is Mathematics?
• The abstract of science of number, quantity, and
space. Mathematics can be studied in its own right
(pure mathematics), or as it is applied to other
disciplines such as physics and engineering (applied
• mathematics)
The study of such topics as quantity, structure,
space and change

• The science that deals with the logic of shape,


quantity and arrangement
• It is the building block of everything in our daily
lives, including mobile devices, architecture (ancient
and modern), art, money, engineering and even
sports
Patterns in Nature and Regularities in
the World
• Patterns and counting are correlative

• Counting happens when there is patterns

• When there is counting, there is logic

• Patterns in nature goes with logic or logical set-


up
• Patterns can be sequential, spatial, temporal and
even linguistic
Examples of Patterns
• The counting numbers
• Even and Odd numbers
• The sequence of the dates in the calendar such as
1 to 30 being used month after month
• The seven (7) days in a week
• The 12 months These are celebrated in the same
sequence every year. All these
• Regular Holidays
phenomena create a repetition of
names or events called REGULARITY
Definition of Terms
• Pattern is a discernible regularity in the world or
in a man made design. The elements of a pattern
repeat in a predictable manner

• Patterns in Nature are visible regularities of form


found in natural world

• Natural Patterns includes symmetries, trees,


spirals, meanders, waves, foams, tessellations,
cracks, cracks and stripes
Definition of Terms
• Regularity is the fact that the same thing always
happens in the same circumstances

• Geometric Pattern is a kind of pattern formed of


geometric shapes and typically repeated like a
wall paper design.
Some Examples of Patterns
Some Examples of Patterns
Some Examples of Patterns
SYMMETRY
• means agreement in dimensions, due proportion and
arrangement
• in language, it refers to a sense of harmonious and beautiful
proportion and balance
• means agreement in dimensions, due proportion and
arrangement

symmetric asymmetric
Some Examples of Patterns
SPIRAL
• means a curve which emerge from a point, moving farther
away as it revolves around the point
• examples of spirals are cones, hurricanes
Some Examples of Patterns
MEANDER
• is one of a series regular sinuous curves, bends, loops, turns
or winding in the channel of river, stream, or other
watercourse
Some Examples of Patterns
WAVE
• is a disturbance that transfers energy through space or
matter, with little or no associated mass transport
• the wave pattern is most often seen when looking at the
ocean from above. However, you can also see wave pattern
in nature when the wind blows through the grass
Some Examples of Patterns
FOAM
• is a substance formed by trapping pockets of gas in a liquid
or solid
Some Examples of Patterns
TESSELATIONS
• flat surface is the tilling of plane using one or more
geometric shapes called tiles, with no overlaps and gaps
Some Examples of Patterns
FRACTURES or CRACKS
• The separation of an object or material into two or more
pieces under the action of stress
Some Examples of Patterns
STRIPES
• Are made by a series of bands or stripes, often of the same
width, and color along the length, a stripe is a line or band
that differs in color or tone from an adjacent area.
Some Examples of Patterns
FRACTAL
• is a never ending pattern; fractals are infinitely complex
patterns that are self-similar across different scales. They are
created by repeating a simple process over and over in an
ongoing feedback loop
