captain cook

Today I have been reading a book called CAPTAIN COOK. 
THE BOOK WAS ABOUT CHARTING OUR ISLANDS.
ON THE MAP cooks charts were published in 1773. Although they showed he hadn't found a great southern continent, his work still hades a huge impact.
The British now knew a lot more about the south pacific and what could be a hundred years, helped people travel safely from the other side of the world.

HOW DID COOK USE MATHS IN HIS CHART MAKING?
BY making a map and making line dots on the map so that whoever is going to find out what cook did during the past years.

WHY WAS MATHS IMPORTANT TO HIM
Because he could keep track of where he was and even were hi was traveling, what the time was when he was finding out the mystery of the world, to solve the mystery of the world.
cook need both latitude and longitude
to chart the island of New Zealand he need these to mark landmarks .cook would plot these on his chart these were important for him to do a running survey.
WHAT I ENJOYED
what I enjoyed was that you learn new things and that you can help others to learn about what you learned.
