I am in high school, and just recently I encountered all sorts of strange equation and functions in math and other subjects like chemistry.
They often involve lots of mathematical constants like π and e. in Primary schools, teacher often explain exactly why certain variable and coefficient have to be there, but in high school they explain the use of mathematical constants and coefficient separately, without telling us why they are sitting in that freaking position they have in a huge equation!!
I am so confused, it‘s often the case when I learn something new, i have the intuition that some number is involved, but to me all the operations that put them together makes no sense at all! when I ask my they give a vague answer, which makes me doubt that all scientist guessed the functions and formulas based on observations and trends. can someone please explain? I am afraid I have to be confused for the rest of my life. thanks in advance
