    years (Columbus). The increase in AM methods is a result of AM’s ability to create products with complex internal and/or external geometry in a timely and cost effective manner (Columbus). Members of the medical field rely on AM to create models for pre-surgery planning as well as structures inserted into patients (Petzold). Background AM can create complex geometries; however the process struggles to maintain geometric accuracy of products (Ameta). Geometrically inaccurate products manufactured

    overestimation scans of objects should be taken using the maximum amount of reference points the software and scanner allow (Pinto). The second method of attaining a .stl file does not involve estimations allowing the model to maintain the desired geometry. The model is made directly in a CAD program then uploaded directly to the slicing software. This software slices the design into the many layers that

    many givens do we need to solve for the area difference between inscribed quadrilaterals within a circle? This question is similar to my mini research paper, however it involves quadrilaterals instead of triangles. Topic requires knowledge heavy in geometry and algebra, such as the properties of both a quadrilateral and a circle. Formulas for areas, angles and lengths for a quadrilaterals and circles would be heavy used throughout. To solve for this question I would need different create different cases

    Greek geometry. The first forms of Greek mathematics were discovered from 800 BC. - 600 BC.. However, during this time period, both literature and writing were far more advanced than math was. Eventually Greek math had expanded to other empires quickly advancing mathematicians knowledge of geometry. The first forms of Greek math were only innovations taken from other societies, but Greeks were the first to invent the idea of “Geometry”. After the period of Alexander the Great, Greek geometry was born

    Math in Roller Coasters The main elements in creating roller coasters are physics and geometry. Geometry is a branch of mathematics with the properties and the relations of points, lines, surfaces, and solids. Speed is to move exceedingly fast, at different rates. Math is used to calculate the height of roller coasters. Engineers calculate the perfect angles, heights, and the directions that allow roller coasters to reach speeds without going off the track. They use some machines to test the roller

    Geometry is the third strand of the Australian Curriculum. It seems that measurement and geometry are together as one strand. The research suggests because “it enhances their relationship to each other, enhancing their practical relevance” (Australian curriculum, 2016, para 3). In this unit I have understood the size, shape and movements of three dimensional objects (Australian curriculum, 2016, para 3). My experience in geometry has developed with various new information and knowledge. When I first

    In order to dive into precursors to calculus we need to understand exactly what calculus itself is. So what is it? According to the Merriam-Webster dictionary calculus is defined as a branch of mathematics that deals mostly with rate of change and with finding lengths, areas, and volumes; it is divided into two types: integral and differential. The calculus we have come to know and love has been around for quite some time, dating all the way back to its “creation” which is credited to Newton and

    identities, the both proofs can prove the formula, but the Geometric proof is only available in acute angle (algebraic proof uses sine, cosine, tangent, which geometric proof is unavailable). Therefore, for geometric proof, because it is based on geometry, which is based on algebra, it is not stronger than the geometric

    took the test. Even though I passed my geometry class, I still failed the exam, which made it challenging for me because I couldn't take over the class again to get extra help. but that didn’t stop my guidance counselor from moving me onto the next math course. She added this new math course to my schedule without the intention of how I was supposed to pass the exam without having that class to give me the help I needed. how I was supposed to pass geometry and also another math course on top of
