Abstract

The study of Mathematics is very useful because it makes it possible to know and understand many of the phenomena that surround us as well as to explore and cross over limits that at first glance seem unsurmountable. This communication will address various things from the theme “Golden Ratio”, namely, the origin of the number of gold, relations between the number of gold and other mathematicians, the human body, geometric figures, works of art and of architecture and  aspects of nature, among others. Thus, one of the purposes of this communication is to show how math is present in history and in our daily lives and may as well be a different way of interpreting the world around us.
