∙ 9y agoCarpenters geometry to calculate angles of roofs and gables, as well as adding and multiplication when making measurements and ordering material.
You need to do the math to get the answers.
LOTS. The best carpenters are very good at trig and advanced geometry. All engineering uses lots of calculations to determine loads and stresses. Even simple framing means that you have to do math to know how long to cut a board.
You need math for everything weather its a job in the CIA or even a grabage man, you need math no matter where you go math is always there sometimes you would recongize it and sometimes you won't.
Most of the things you will do will require some math. If you want new drapes for your house you will need to know how to measure for it and to do area. Your paycheck requires math as well as your budget. Taxes require math. If you want to know how many gallons to a mile you get in your car you need math. Cooking requires math. Suppose you want to double a recipe you need math. Ignorance in any area guarantees that you will have problems in everyday life. You don't need to be a rocket scientist but you do need to know basic math.
Woodworking and math skills.
Mostly geometry, adding, subtracting fractions and decimals.
well if i understand correctly carpenters have to know measurements to measure wood and all that other stuff. they need to know how to add and subtract measurements also.
No, but they will be better carpenters if they do.
Carpenters use geometry for angles and diagonal lengths, area and surface area for walls and sheathing, and the engineering computation of loads per square inch.
yes
Harry C. Huth has written: 'Practical Problems in Math for Carpenters'
Carpentars use math many times when: * Using a measuring tape * measuring a block of wood * how long to cut a block of wood * when talking about sizes of wood * and when talking about cords of firewood
The New England Regional Council of Carpenters, which is the carpenters union in the north east, requires a high school diploma or a GED equivalent for acceptance into their 4 year apprenticeship program.You know all that stuff they tried to teach you in math class that you thought you never use? Think again.
Carpenters use math and accurate measurements in everyday life by using tape measures and levels and angle measuring devices.
Because the blueprints are plans of what they have to construct.
They had carpenters because they needed the carpenters
