A. Directions: Answer the following questions briefly.

1. In your own idea, describe what is a language?

Language is a word or code system that is used within a discipline. A
method of communicating that systematically uses symbols or sounds. A code
that humans use to express themselves and communicate with others. It
improves communication and clarifies meaning. Individuals can express
themselves while maintaining their identity.

2. How are math and language related?

Math can serve as a universal language because it is the same all over
the world. A phrase or formula has the same meaning regardless of the language
with which it is associated. Math, in this way, assists people in learning and
communicating, even when other communication barriers exist.

3. Why is the language of mathematics powerful?

It enables us to comprehend patterns, quantify relationships, and forecast
the future. Math helps us understand the world, and the world helps us
understand math. Math is an extremely effective tool for global understanding
and communication. Students can use it to make sense of the world and solve
complex and real-world problems. Rethinking math in a global context provides
students with a new perspective on traditional content, making math more
relevant and meaningful to them.

4. How can studying mathematical language be beneficial to you as a

student?

It is critical for the development of mathematical proficiency to teach and

learn the language of mathematics. The development of students' mathematical
vocabulary is a critical component of their language development and, ultimately,
their mathematical proficiency.

5. How are you going to apply the knowledge of mathematics to the real
world?

I will use mathematics in the real world as a weapon in surviving my daily life
like using it in calculating expenses, reading numbers and even letters and
predicting situation by the use of mathematics

EXERCISES:
A. Directions: Decide whether each of the following is a proposition or not a proposition.
If not state, the reason.
1. Do you believe in love at first sight? NOT PROPOSITION, because it is
interrogative..
2. When in doubt, stop! NOT PROPOSITION, because how can you stop if
you doubt, to more you will not stop yet you’re doubting so you should
stop--- it’s basically a paradox
3. VECO is an electric company. PROPOSITION
4. Nobody goes to that restaurant; it’s too crowded. PROPOSITION

E. Directions: Let p = The square of any real number is nonnegative, q= 5 is an odd integer,
r = one plus one equals two. Write each symbolic form into a statement.
1. p V q
The square of any real number is nonnegative or 5 is an odd integer.
2. q ↔ r
5 is an odd integer if and only if one plus one equals two.
3. ~ p ꓥ ~ r
The square of any real number is not a nonnegative or one plus one is not
equals two.
4. p V (q ꓥ r)
Either the square of any real number is nonnegative or the statement 5 is an
odd integer and one plus one equals two.
