“Mathematics possesses not only truth, but also supreme beauty” (Bertrand Russell)
Math as an área of
knowledge provides one with a stream for understanding analysis through
statistical means in correlation with worldly conflicts. The quotation provides
a theory many people have rejected, math as beauty as this quote aims to prove that it is. Math has been known to provide
straightforward responses with coming to a single correct answer. The different formulas are used to predict different situations by factoring in different factors. Hence math is
not normally up for speculation. Referring to the quote where Russel states math as the truth refers to the simple and single answers thus referring to the characteristics as a way on knowing. Although mathematical formulas have been
applied to the real world which has been seen as beauty. In math there is a
formula known as the golden ratio. This ratio has been applied to real life where
mathematical formulas come together to determine what is “symmetric”, where symmetry
is seen as a form of perfection. Math as a way of knowing is a large spectrum which only works when every element aligns thus referring to the beauty of it. How we know something is reflective of how the area of knowledge functions. With math being so abstract it is hard to quantify the actual length of its power but having math being a either an invention or discovery its beauty in correlation to other factors can be seen to have a supreme beauty of its own.
