Why is the language of mathematics useful in the study of the motion of celestial

bodies?

Because the use of triangles can determine distances

because using hands and feet does not bring you that far in this

The answer is so self-evident. You got another better way?

Mathematics is the language of science. The length of a toothpick sitting on my desk is the same length of the same toothpick drifting in space 10 million light years away. Math does not change.Unless, of course, we discover a 4th dimension. THEN all the rules change and we have to start over! That would ****!

Mathematics is the language of science, without it we can be sure of nothing that is proposed.
