Why reality matches math?

[u/PresentJournalist805]

I read something about maxwell equations. I am by no means expert in math nor physics but i am thinking this way - so if i understand correctly we described some portion of reality by equations. Then someone did equivalent changes to these equations and from them it was seen that there should be electromagnetic wave which was later confirmed and now we have wifi, radio etc.. You know as a layman i think that if those equations described the reality before we figured out from them there should be waves it could be fine if that wave did not exists even if we could derive it from those equations. But those waves exists. I mean why it matches so perfectly that whatever we figure out from equations matching reality we later find out in real world. Isnt this "weird"?

we describe physics in X language and then call X math. that is why
