The online mathematics community is buzzing with activity, as evidenced by the 238th Carnival of Mathematics, hosted by Aperiodical. This month's carnival showcases diverse submissions and beautiful math art, starting with an exploration of the number 238 itself. Found to be 2 x 7 x 17 and the sum of the first 13 primes, the number also inspired community contributions, with users pointing out its appearance in uranium isotopes, hexagonal representations, and even birth minute celebrations. The carnival highlights the engaging and creative ways people interact with mathematical concepts online.
The carnival features a collection of blog posts and activities from various math enthusiasts. Number yoga is explored as a technique to develop creative reasoning and comprehension in mathematics. This involves noticing details, wondering about possibilities, and creating explanations or related puzzles. Also featured are posts on polyominoes, a modern presentation of Peano Axioms, practical math for programmers, the Monty Hall Problem, and group theory using Zoombinis. Karen Campe also continues her visual "Go For Geometry" series.
Furthermore, the online discussion includes extensions of basic geometry, focusing on pedal triangles and related theorems. A blog post delves into generalizations of perpendiculars from a point in a triangle, highlighting properties of the orthocenter and the orthic triangle. The orthic triangle's perimeter and its connection to the angles of the original triangle are discussed. The community also shares the art from Ayliean's MathArtMarch.
