What is a tessellation? A tessellation is any repeating pattern of interlocking shapes. M.C. Escher made this art form famous. This site gives students a comprehensive introduction to tessellations and explains the basic math that is used in creating them. So enter Totally Tessellated to learn, create, explore, and have fun! Languages: English.

Welcome to Team Soccer's scientific site. We have information regarding high school level geometry, one of the harder maths you need to take in high school in our opinion. We also have a section on Alexander the Great. Although that isn't scientific, Alexander was a great strategist and intelligent person.

This Thinkquest site is an interdisciplinary unit based on a sixth grade math program whose focus is area and perimeter. To include the math curriculum and to highlight our geographical area (Cape Cod, Massachusetts), our team will research the region and identify the key elements of history, oceanography and horticulture. A park will be designed using area and perimeter as the mathematical basis. Activities will be designed to appeal to a variety of learning styles and abilities.

Have you heard about AA Alphabet?
Have you heard about the HTML from Mezin?
Did you know that 20000 years ago there was a Geometrical Revolution?
Did you know that the angle, the rhombus and the spirals are older than the agriculture, the pottery and the kings?
The history of the Rhombus is more spectacular than the history of kings and wars.
But did you know that the kings appeared 3200 years BC and the Rhombus - c. 12000 years BC?
Did you know that the Geometrical Homeland of the Man is the South East Europe?
o.K.
Did you know that the plants are healing today in the same way they were healing the Geometrical Man?
Do you know how tasty is an apricot taken from your own garden?
Do you know how sweet is a teacher when he's not a judge?
Do you know that the Internet will change fundamentally the education?

A self-teaching project suitable for everybody who wants to learn more about Maths, speacially Calculus. This site has been designed in an interactive way, in order to improve and increase your knowledge.
Since Caulculus is one of the most importante branches of mathematics, and one of the most used "techniques" for solving common problems, this site has been developed in order to have applications for it.
Mathematics are part of our daily life, you use numbers, geometrics figures, variables, etc, and we bet that you haven't realized about that. You count money, you draw any kind of object made primarly of geometric figures, you make hypotesis about your grades and calculations about them. You see? Maths are everywhere!!!
Our well known friends, the X, Y, Z variables, will go all the way together us and will explain step by step every process.
Interactive exams, online help, examples, excercises, graphics everything sou you can learn more about it.
Calculus of one varibale will be revised in this project.
Just like we say: "... The greatest men are not who fight other men in battle, but those who fight the ignorance... "

When people think of math, do they think of beauty? Do they think of things like pinecones and sunflowers? What does Leonardo da Vinci have to do with this? What do the Greeks, Romans, and people of the Renaissance have in common? They all a mathematics concept in common: the Golden Ratio. The most irrational number in the world is a basis for many things: math, art, architecture, biology, and this site explains how.

Our entry was designed to be educational and fun. The entry title is called Geometry. This site is a course and reference in the study of basic geometry. Some interaction with the user was involved with quizes and the style graphics used. The site is made user-friendly by the maneuverability from one page to another. The entry overall was made to be pleasant to the eye, so learning geometry can be an educational and fun.

Do you think high school geometry is only about completing two-column proofs? Whether you are a student taking geometry now, a student that has already had geometry, or a teacher, if you said yes to the first question, then you are in the majority. This web page has been designed to showcase a few geometry activities that demonstrate that geometry can be so much more-more related to real life, more hands-on, and more fun!
The activities can be used by students themselves to help them understand geometry better or can be used by a teacher with the entire class. These activities have been tried and tested in actual classrooms and found to be very interesting, student engaging, and beneficial in helping students understand the concepts and make much needed connections to the real world. These sample activities are a part of a larger project. Our Think Quest coach, Lisa Willian, is developing a CD of geometry activities to help students throughout the state of Kentucky to understand geometry better. The Christa McAuliffe Fellowship
funded this project. This web page was created to both share activities as well as give other students and teachers an opportunity to share with our team on this important geometry project. It has been a valuable learning experience for our team as we learned how to make a web page, program the graphics, etc. needed to create our Think Quest entry.

The basic facts about Origami, it's custom and history, and it's mathematical source. We not only did a research on Origami as an art, but also as a dynamic source for education and our daily life. In this site, we made sure that the information for beginners was easy to understand and for specialists, both challenging and fascinating. This site also introduces everyone on how to fold a few of the basic Origami patterns. By just following the diagram, anyone can fold an Origami pattern easily. This site also helps everybody to see the mathematical and scientific side of the Origami World. ‘Fun With Origami' will give teachers an idea on what to do for class activities for young students. You can experience the Origami World too!

M.C. Escher began his career as an architect, but he made his mark with fantastic graphic art. Using a mathematical technique called "tessellation," he produced complex patterns based on repeating shapes in the forms of butterflies and fish, birds, and lzards. Learn about his life, how to construct a tessellation, and view samples of his art on this visually interesting site.
