CORRELATION OF MATHEMATICS WITH OTHER SUBJECTS

    
   Mathematics correlates with almost all school subject. Sciences uses mathematics the most. Even the Fine Arts use mathematics to some extent. Mathematics has characteristics like symmetry, similarity, originality, generalization and verification. All these characteristics make mathematics very usable, practical and versatile. Relation of mathematics with science, economics and fine arts is covered in this text

Relation of Mathematics with Sciences  
    1. Physics  - 
         (i) The numerical derivations of many Laws of science are provided by mathematics. 
    (ii) Newton Laws of Motion, Gravitational Laws, Boyle's Law, Charles Law etc. require mathematics for practical understanding. 
        (iii)  All measurements, units and measuring devices depend upon mathematics.
       
   2.  Chemistry -
       (i) Chemical equations, balancing of equations
      (ii) Atomic number, atomic and molecular mass, atomic mass units, radii of atoms and molecules.
       (iii) Chemical bonds, states of matter are based on geometrical principles.
       (iv) Amount of salts in medicines. 
       (v) Number of molecules of different elements in a compound
          
  3. Biology - 
         (i) Genes, Heredity, DNA, Chromosomes follow mathematical rules
         (ii) Geometrical structure of cells and tissues
         (iii) Skeletal structure of body
         (iv) Number of Bones in the body
          (v) Range of normal glandular secretion

Relation of Mathematics with Economics     
         (i) Money, Capital, Production, labour
         (ii) Statistical methods
         (iii) Probability theory

         (v) Various principles of economics
         (vi) Profit/ Loss, Percentage, Interest, Taxes, Accounting
         (vii) Demand and Supply
         (viii) Inflation

Relation of Mathematics with Fine Arts
        (i) Music is Mathematically organised sound
        (ii) Ratio, proportion, geometry, graphic grids, mixing of color are used in painting and sculpture
        (iii) Symmetry and balance are important characteristics of fine arts and mathematics
         (iv) Architecture uses mathematics.
