10 Math Equations that Engineers Should Know

  • Pythagoras’ Theorem by Pythagoras, 530 B.C.
  • Law of Gravity by Newton, 1668.
  • Euler’s Polyhedra Formula by Euler, 1751.
  • Wave Equation by J.d’Almbert, 1746.
  • Fourier Transform by J.Fourier,1822.
  • Navier-Stokes Equation by C.Navier, G.Stokes, 1845.

Do engineers memorize formulas?

After all, engineers make use of analysis far more than memorization. While there are indeed equations which are simplified by their discoverers to spare the learners from the lengthy derivations, many formulas do not need to be memorized. Instead, engineering students only have to rely on the principles behind them.

What are the main formulas in maths?

Basic algebra formula

  • a2 – b2 = (a – b)(a + b)
  • (a + b)2 = a2 + 2ab + b2
  • a2+ b2 = (a + b)2 – 2ab.
  • (a – b)2 = a2 – 2ab + b2
  • (a + b + c)2 = a2 + b2 + c2 + 2ab + 2bc + 2ca.
  • (a – b – c)2 = a2 + b2 + c2 – 2ab + 2bc – 2ca.
  • (a + b)3 = a3 + 3a2b + 3ab2 + b2
  • (a – b)3 = a3 – 3a2b + 3ab2 – b3

Is maths in engineering difficult?

It is not difficult . . . Your concepts should be clear . . . The maths is not to be underestimated – for engineering in the first couple of years, it’s generally >40% of the course, if not more, and you will do maths even the maths students don’t do until their 2nd/3rd year in your first year.

Do engineers use a lot of math?

Granted, a small percentage of graduate engineers will work in a R&D setting that will require high level math. However, the reality is that the vast majority of engineers that graduate will work in industry. If you look at what they do, day in and day out, you will find that they need to be very good at algebra.

Can I study engineering if I fail in maths?

Students who have not studied mathematics or physics in class 12 too can take admission to undergraduate engineering courses like B. Tech and BE. This is because the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) has now revised its regulations.
