SLANE Chemiffry P123 :ict MATHEMATICS Mathematics is an important high school course because it teaches one principles and fundamentals he will use all his life. Whether it is the student who takes mathematics one year and uses it for checking his bills, or the student who takes mathematics for eight years and uses it for building bridges, both benefit highly from ,mathematics It teaches one to observe, reason, apply formulas, and solve problems in a logical manner, The language of science is mathematics and without it there would be very little science.
