How are Math and AI related?
Math is the study of patterns
? To solve the puzzles, you identify an order/arrangement in the list of numbers or the images.
? This arrangement is called a pattern.
? These patterns exist all around us.
? We have patterns in numbers, images, and language.
Ask learners if they can identify any patterns around themselves.
AI is a way to recognize patterns
? AI can learn to recognize patterns, like human beings.
? AI can see patterns in different types of data - numbers, images, and speech and text.
? These patterns help AI to solve puzzles – like identifying dogs and muffins, or predicting
hurricanes!

Ask learners to answer some or all of these questions as an assignment. Meanwhile, take dummy
numbers and walk the learners through the questions.
? Can you find out the total weight of your family members?
? Can you find out the total number of students in your school?
? Can you find out the maximum temperature in your city during the last month?
Activity 4:
Purpose: Uses of Statistics in real life.
Write any two applications of Statistics in real life.
AI uses Math for:
? Statistics (Exploring data): Example – What is the middle value of the data? Which is the most
common value in the data?
? Calculus (training and improving AI model): Example – which line is more slanted? Which figure
covers more area?
? Linear Algebra (finding out unknown or missing values): Example – How many plants are there
in total? How many cars are there in a city?
? Probability (predicting different events): Example – what will be the possible results of a coin
toss? Will it rain tomorrow?
3.2 Statistics
Definition of Statistics:” Statistics is used for collecting, exploring, and analyzing the data. It also helps
in drawing conclusions from data.”
? Data is collected from various sources.
? Data is explored and cleaned to be used.
? Analysis of data is done to understand it better.
? Conclusions and decisions can be made from the data.
Applications of Statistics:
? Predict the performance of sports teams
? It can be used to find out specific things such as:
o the reading level of students
o the opinions of voters
o the average weight of a city’s resident
Some more applications of Statistics
Disaster Management
? Authorities use statistics to alert the citizens residing in places that might be affected by a natural
disaster in near future.
