This is not a math trick program even though you can learn a few common math tricks with it.
The purpose of this program is to help students establish a lifelong interest in mathematics through investigation on math tricks. The goal: to stimulate a studentís creativity, not just for mathematical exploration but also for other disciplines, such as physics, chemistry, or programming - where an innate understanding of mathematical concepts leads to successful subject completion.
At the end of each chapter, there are some exercises. While the exercises are useful to develop math concepts, their real purpose is to ask the student to explore other similar mathematical constructs and to then develop their own solutions.
For the Drill option, you will be given five minutes to answer a series of mulitplication questions. It includes the basic ones explained by this program and the extended ones involved in the exercises.
The topics includes:
- Multiply a two-digit number by 11
- Multiply a two-digit number by 99
- Multiply a number by 25
- Square of a two-digit number that ends with 5
- Multiply two two-digit numbers with same first digit and the sum of the second digits is 10
- Square of Number with all 9s
Have fun exploring!!!
