| Every math teacher has heard at some point and probably often: What is the purpose of learning this math stuff? Almost every student in school dreads math classes because they see no real world applications, especially in algebra, geometry, trigonometry, and calculus. The simple answer to why learn math and other similar math questions – computers.
For example the animation industry has become a teacher’s friend; animation uses computers which rely heavily on the application of advanced mathematics. Computer animation programmers must know algebra, geometry, calculus, and trigonometry. Without extensive knowledge of math applications in animation, movies would not have visually rich environments and characters that we see today.
Pixar, one of the leaders in movie computer animation, uses powerful supercomputers to perform geometric, algebraic, and calculus-based calculations to animate Pixar’s movie characters. These math-based calculations follow the laws of physics to simulate the dynamics of fabric, background, and character movement. |

| It is important to understand the significance of math in everyday life. Although we rarely give math any credit, but look upon it with disdain, math plays an important role in holding our daily lives in place, right from the food we eat to the work we do, math is involved everywhere! |
