👉 Mathematics encompasses several distinct branches, each focusing on different aspects of numbers, quantities, and structures.
Arithmetic
deals with basic operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, forming the foundation for more advanced concepts.
Algebra
introduces symbols to represent unknown values and explores relationships between variables, using equations to solve problems.
Geometry
studies shapes, sizes, positions, and dimensions, encompassing both Euclidean and non-Euclidean spaces.
Calculus
examines change and motion, focusing on rates of change (differential calculus) and accumulation (integral calculus), crucial for understanding physical phenomena.
Number Theory
investigates properties of integers and other whole numbers, including prime numbers and divisibility.
Topology
explores properties of space that are preserved under continuous deformations, while
Probability and Statistics
analyze randomness and uncertainty, providing tools for data interpretation and prediction. Each branch builds upon the others, forming a comprehensive framework for understanding and describing the world around us.
