DAILY LIFE USES OF DIFFERENTIATION AND INTEGRATION

In Isaac Newton's day, one of the biggest problems was poor navigation at sea.
Before calculus was developed, the stars were vital for navigation.
Shipwrecks occurred because the ship was not where the captain thought it should be. There was not a good enough understanding of how the Earth, stars and planets moved with respect to each other.

The two most commonly used measures for angles are degrees and radians. There are 360 degrees in a full circle (a right angle is 90 degrees), and  radians in a full circle (there are  radians in a right angle), so there are about 57 degrees in a radian.

Mode

The mode

The mode is the number which occurs most often in a set of data. There can be more than one mode.

Median

The median

The median is the middle number. To calculate the median of any set of numbers, you need to write the numbers in order.

Mean

The mean

The mean is the most common measure of average. If you ask someone to find the average, this is the method they are likely to use.

Circle and it angles

Introduction: A circle is all points equidistant from one point called the center of the circle. Segments drawn within the circle create angles which we define and measure.
