Here are just a few examples of math commonly used in different art forms:

  • Photography: A great deal of geometry is involved in professional photography. See "The Rule of Thirds."
  • Music: Electronic music production is arguably more math than art. Aside from things like creating wave forms using oscillators, math is prevalent in traditional music composition as well: Sound frequencies and harmonies are measured with mathematics; Scales are ratios; Time, rythm, and meter are mathematical concepts; and much more. See "Transformational Theory" for an example of more advanced algabraic applications used in music.
  • Dance, as a physical interperetation or byproduct of music, relies on these mathematical concepts as well.
  • All forms of physical design (from fashion to architecture) rely heavily on mathematics.
  • Cooking as an artform is technically chemistry, and chemistry is all kinds of mathy.

Maths is also used in geography; in geography you count population and take measurements. Maths is used in music as well; you count the beats, multiply the beats and arrange them. There are many other uses of maths in these subjects, if you don't constrain yourself to thinking that maths is STRICTLY hard arithmetic and algebraic problems you will see that maths is in everything you do. From cooking, to breathing, maths is everywhere.
