Simple maths is important in DIY/construction e.g. triangles to support a roof structure. Being able to calculate lengths angles and areas is very useful. Maths is used in cartography, chemistry, economics, government (e.g. predicting population growth and the spread of disease), really useful in business, for example setting the price of a product to make the most profit. I use maths every day in an engineering job, it is essential for Electronic, Mechanical, Civil and Aerospace engineering as well as Physics and Computer Science. Did you know that huge amounts of maths is used to route mobile phone calls or internet data? Or for data compression do that you can seamlessly stream video? Or even cryptography, to keep your money safe?
