viii, 224 pages : color illustrations ; 26 cm. More than just a book, Finite Mathematics 1 is a journey into how mathematics lives in the everyday Filipino experience. From budgeting your baon to running a small business or spotting hidden patterns in local art and architecture, this book shows how numbers connect to culture, creativity, and decision-making. Each chapter introduces core mathematical concepts such as the geometry of design, patterns in nature and art, matrices, and linear programming, while grounding lessons in localized examples that reflect Filipino traditions, values, and ingenuity. From weaving motifs and church facades to fundraising ventures and nutrition planning, you will see how mathematics is not only practical but also deeply tied to our heritage. Packed with localized examples, relatable scenarios and values like bayanihan and pagiging madiskarte, it transforms abstract concepts into practical tools you can use in real life. Whether you are maximizing profits, designing with symmetry, or exploring the beauty of the golden ratio, you will see mathematics not only as universal but also proudly Filipino. Engaging, relevant and empowering, Finite Mathematics 1 helps senior high school students build confidence in problem-solving while celebrating heritage. It is mathematics with meaning—one that is clear, practical, and rooted in the values that make us who we are. Neil Jerome A. Egarguin, Lauro L. Fontanil, Edd Francis O. Felix, Romsto R. Pajarillo.
