Magic Mathematics. How to find x and why is it necessary. Benjamin A.

Why couldn't it be before learning about numbers, algebra and geometry in such an exciting form? Why it was impossible to immediately explain why all these parabola, integrals and probabilities we need. It turns out that mathematics surrounds us. She is everywhere! A stream of water from the fountain pours, and engineers use the properties of the parabola to calculate the trajectory of the flight of aircraft and satellites. Using integrals, you can calculate how much linoleum you need to cover the room of an indirect shape. And the ability to calculate the likelihood of an event will help to win a poker.

“Magic Mathematics” is the book that you dreamed about at school. Everything that used to go around before is now simple and clear: the triangle of Pascal, mathematical infinity, the magical properties of numbers, the sequence of fibonacci, the golden section. And also a professional magician Arthur Benjamin shares the secrets of mathematical tricks. Demonstrate them - your viewers will definitely reach for calculators to count.
