I’ve been wondering if math helps in chess. I mean   Angles and Degrees help directing the pieces, but do you need to know that?

I don't know. However, I am sure that chess helps in math, but i don't know if the opposite is true. If yes, then it is an infinite improvement loop.

I think there is a lot of correlation between chess and mathematics. In complex games often the player who can calculate better will come out on top.

I am good at head math, and I am good at calculation, so I think there is a strong correlation between math and chess.
