i need some basic uses of geometry in our everyday life?

1) Determining amount of paint to buy

2) Deciding how much fertilizer to buy for the lawn

3) How big is a house in square feet?

4) Will a ladder be safe if placed against a wall (make a good angle to climb)?

5) Placement of furniture in a room

6) Playing “Tangrams”

Scoring a point after or field goal in football–the ball does not have to literally go through the goal posts–think of the goal posts continuing all the way up to the sky–as long as the ball goes between the imaginary rays–it is a score The football player and ball must break the plane of the goal line to be a score—think of a wall–perpendicular to the field through the goal line You use deductive reasoning everyday–what do you need to know before you can conclude you can buy that CD you want?

Start with how most things built into your home, i.e. windows, frames, roofs etc involve geometry for “triangulation” or bracing in order to stay erect.

Mention also how your kitchen floor was tiled (or lino) from a starting point of a deliberate straight line to which the first row of tiles or sheet of lino was laid to.

The plumbing in your laundry, bathroom, toilet and kitchen relies on the correct volume of water finding its way out and in the correct bore sized pipes in order to perform correctly.

The building regulations govern the size of your windows in your home compared to the area of the floor space. (Bet you didn’t know that one!)

The path formed across your garden should have been constructed to follow the natural tendency of people to walk across the quickest way. This natural path placement is technically called a “Desire line” and is part of geometry

The car you ride/drive in; the ratio of engine speed to road speed is moderated by the correct sized gear wheels in the gearbox to transfer the correct torque to the tyres.

Geometry is at the base of all physical objects ever built, whether it is a building, an electronic device, a fabricated material, a consumer product, or a machine.
