Mathematical Association of South Australia (MASA)

I, Went to the AGM on its date . Very organised group of volunteers. I got some hand outs about the Association , as they are going through some changes at present , updating there constitution.

This blog is created using WordPress which I attended a one day course @ WEA to better learn how to drive the program, so I can make the blog function for readers whom want to comment , and to give the blog a new look , to attract people to return to it 🙂

I just looked myself on another computer , i think i need to pay to get advertising removed, Update bought the $5/month ,No Ads deal , seems to be working .

Hi there Maths people or with an interest in maths

I have just read Eddy Woos book “Wonderful World of Maths ” PanMcMillan 2018

I really enjoyed the Chapter 07 ” What Sunflowers know about the Universe ”

Here Eddy talks about the Golden Ratio .  This is the term phi  Φ  which equals ( to 10 significant figures ) Φ = 1.6180339887  or  (1+√5)/2 or the larger root of  y=x^2 -x-1    or  (a+b)/b = b/a  from a linear term ( need to insert graphic to see this more )

Cant see how to insert image here , get to that later . I will now see how this post looks on Andriod Oreo V8

Bye for now . Just seen the image above 🙂
