MATHEMATICAL FALLACIES AND THEIR USE IN THE ALGEBRAIC CURRICULUM IN SCHOOLS

Mathematical fallacies are such statements in the chains of arguments that cause subtle mistakes. Using them in the process of teaching Mathematics can contribute to increasing students’ interest in learning the material as well as helping them acquire a firm...

ONE TYPE OF PROBLEMS WITH INFINITE NUMBER OF CUBE ROOTS

In the present research paper a particular type of problems is examined, with an infinite number of cube roots involved. Different problems and questions are proposed and in terms of solving some examples two theorems are defined and proved. The study could be...

SOME MATH QUIZZES FOR PRESENTING A NUMBER BY USING EQUAL DIGITS AND MATH OPERATIONS

This paper gives a formalization of a problem for presenting a number by using particular set of equal digits and a range of math operators. Based on the formal definition, an example for presenting 7 in two ways by using 4 times the digit 2 is given. The firs...

A NOTE ON THE ARBELOS IN WASAN GEOMETRY: SATOH’S PROBLEM AND A CIRCLE PATTERN

We generalize a problem in W asan geometry involving an arbelos, and construct a self-similar circle pattern.

FORMULAES FOR THE DISTANCES FROM THE BROCARDIANS AND THE MIQUEL POINT IN A QUADRILATERAL TO ITS VERTICES AND THE MIDPOINTS OF ITS SIDES AND DIAGONALS

Formulae are derived and presented for the distances to the vertices and the midpoints of the sides and diagonals of a quadrilateral from three of its notable points. They are used to prove some inequalities in the quadrilateral, connecting the lengths of its...
