MMC 15 Second Bursts

In this engaging session, we honor mathematicians Richard Rukin and David R. Johnson, exploring key concepts of mathematics that transcend basic theories. Participants will tackle problems involving the sum of squares, quadratic equations, and the properties of functions, including inverses and distributions. We will also delve into geometric shapes such as ellipses and parabolas, enhancing problem-solving skills with practical examples. Join us for a collaborative learning experience where curiosity meets mathematical rigor.
