Math Teaches Us Through studies of algebra, geometry, trigonometry, and modern algebra, we learn to reason and to organize our thoughts. It is not only useful to college- bound students, but it is also necessary in everyday problems. Algebra helps chem- istry students with formula writing and trigonometry is a must for physics.

Modern Developments Daily developments in the field of science make us aware of the significance of this subject. Experi- mentation enables us to prove facts for ourselves rather than merely to accept theories as truths. Our sci- ence teachers attempt to create within us an interest in scientific fields and also to help us under- s.
