Pascal’s triangle

Pascal’s triangle, in x+ y) n. It is named for the 17th-century French mathematician Siyuan yujian (1303; “Precious Mirror of Four Elements”), where it was already called the “Old Method.” The remarkable pattern of coefficients was also studied in the 11th century by the Persian mathematician, astronomer, and poet The triangle can be constructed by first placing a 1 (Chinese “—”) along the left and right edges. Then the triangle can be filled out from the top by adding together the two numbers just above to the left and right of each position in the triangle. Thus, the second row, in x+ y) 0=1; the second row, or 11, gives the coefficients for ( x+ y) 1= x+ y; the third row, or 121, gives the coefficients for ( x+ y) 2= x 2+2 x y+ y 2; and so forth.

History Of Mathematics : Who first invented mathematics?

The Babylonian mathematical tablet Plimpton 322, dated to 1800 BC. History Of Mathematics : Who first invented mathematics? Was Math Created or Discovered? What was the first math? Starting in September, NFL teams begin to face each other on a weekly basis. In order to outcompete the other team, players must rely not only on peak physical maintenance, but also a strong game plan. Over time, strategies have become increasingly complicated and sophisticated, and new game plans and solutions are created by coaches in an effort to best prepare their team. This process is comparable to mathematics, where finding ways to solve ever-growing and ever-diversifying sets of problems, requires that mathematicians find new ways to solve these new problems. Creating new methods of explanation, would mean producing entirely novel solutions to problems. Discovering methods of explanation, on the other hand, would mean that the solution had already existed, and that we had just finally found it. Throughout history, ancient civilizations have proved over and over again that math was and is currently being created. Throughout history, there has always become a need for the quantification of objects and ideas. In Donald Allen’s “The Origin of Mathematics”, he describes ancient examples of the need for quantification. For example, in pecking orders, civilizations used numerical order to construct hierarchical rankings. Similarly, with the worth of a herdsman, a shepherd would need to count and...

Who Invented Math?

We're sure that more than one student has wished that he could time and prevent someone from inventing math. Of course, that same wish probably has been made with regard to all subjects that result in homework and difficult tests from time to time. But would that really be possible…even if time travel existed? Probably not! Why? Unlike a light bulb or a computer, mathematics isn't really an discovery. Mathematics encompasses many different types of studies, so its discovery can't even be attributed to one person. Instead, mathematics developed slowly over thousands of years with the help of thousands of people! How did it get started? No one can know for sure, but we can use our imaginations to think about how mathematics might have gotten its start. For example, if we go all the way back to prehistoric humans gathering berries to eat, we can imagine how this basic task probably gave rise for a need for math. If you and your prehistoric buddy gathered a basket full of berries, you'd probably agree to split them evenly. First, you'd need to know how many berries you gathered. That means you'd need to count them. You might first need to come up with names for the basic units of Similarly, division might have been born from the need to split that pile of berries evenly. How advanced did prehistoric humans get with mathematics? Probably not far at all, but a need for certain mathematic principles likely arose from daily life and, as such, were discovered or created out of need...

Gladys West: the hidden figure who helped invent GPS

G ladys West knew from a young age that she didn’t want to be a farmer. But the mathematician, born in 1930 in Dinwiddie County, Virginia, still had to help harvest crops on her family’s small farm. The hard work started before daybreak and lasted well into the blistering heat of the afternoon. She hated the dirt but, while she worked, she kept her mind on the building behind the trees at the end of the farm. It was her school, and even then she knew it would be her ticket to freedom. “I was gonna get an education and I was going to get out of there. I wasn’t going to be stuck there all my life,” West, 89, says firmly, on Zoom in her home in Virginia. What she could not have guessed was that this focus would shatter the perceptions of black women of the time and even lead to the invention of one of our most widely used inventions – The red schoolhouse, as West’s elementary school was known, was a three-mile walk away, through the woods and over streams. The seven year groups, who were all black, were taught in one room, but West quickly stood out. Her parents tried to save some money to send her to college, but unexpected bills kept hitting the fund. If West was going to go to college, she needed to find a way to pay for it herself. She tried to put money aside, but became frustrated at how little progress she was making. Then a teacher announced that the state was going to give a college scholarship to the two top students from her year. It was her golden opportunity. “I ...

The History of Algebra

Introduction Mathematics as a subject can be broadly divided into three significant branches Arithmetic, Algebra, and Geometry. Algebra is considered to be one of the oldest components in the history of mathematics. Algebra deals with the study of symbols, exponentials, known and unknown variables, and equations. The History of Algebra has been dealt with in detail here. What Is Algebra? The Number Theory, Geometry, and their analysis put together to make an extensive part of mathematics which is known as " Algebra". In other words, Algebra is a part of mathematics that deals with symbols and the rules to calculate those symbols.
