Synopsis

This book offers high school teachers and students a broad and engaging look at an often-maligned subject — mathematics. Expanding beyond strictly defined curriculums, Fun Math: Problem Solving Beyond the Classroom explores additional topics that can inspire and motivate students to better appreciate the importance and beauty of mathematics. The first four chapters present novel examples in four integral areas of the mathematics curriculum, namely arithmetic, logic, algebra, and geometry. The last two chapters expose readers to topics in algebra and geometry that have been neglected at the secondary school level. Throughout the book, the focus is on introducing problem-solving techniques that will be useful in everyday life. With over 300 problems and carefully worked solutions, the book aims to foster a greater appreciation for mathematics through an exploration of useful and fascinating topics rarely addressed in the classroom. In other words, you can have fun with mathematics!
