Mathematics is one of those subjects who either love it or not? Unfortunately, many people say they hate him. I think this is really a shame because it is almost fashionable, and do not like math, but it is so important a factor in everyone's life. I have the courage to imagine that they all use math every hour, every day I wake up.
People work, if they have enough binding to cross the street safely, it is estimated the total cost of theirShopping to avoid embarrassment to the cashier, and expect to get the correct change. Use this constant can not be any other subject, said more than language.
Anyway, here's my little attempt to mathematics more interesting. This is a list of important dates in the history of mathematics, before Jesus Christ was born.
C.30, 000 BC - people in Europe began to take scratches or nicks on the use of numbers.
c.3, 500 BC - the Egyptians developed a system ofNumbers, record the very high number, because there are different icons for the most, tens, hundreds, and thousands could be.
c.2, 400 BC - a numbering system was developed in Mesopotamia, which is similar to the Hindu-Arabic system was based on the location of the symbol introduced.
c.2, 000 BC - learned mathematics in Mesopotamia, how to solve quadratic equations accurately.
c.1, 900 BC - Mesopotamian mathematicians discovered what we now call the Pythagorean Theorem: the square of theHypotenuse of the triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.
c.470 BC - Hippasas Metaponto (in greek: c 500) discovered the dodecahedron, or 12-sided regular solid.
C.450 BC - Pythagoras showed that some lengths can be measured accurately. For example, the diagonal of a 1x1 square can not be measured with one of their sides as a unit.
c. 300 BC - Euclid's "Elements" (in greek: c 300), showed that almost all parts of mathematics can be detected by ashort list of rules.
c.260 BC - the Maya in Central America has developed a numbering system of icons set "value.
c.250 BC - Archimedes (in greek: 287 BC - 212 BC) were important theorems about the volume of solids. He also made a very decent approximation of PI and developed a system for representing very large numbers
c.230 BC - Apollonius of Perga (in greek: c 262-190) wrote his work as "conic sections", which is the analysis of the curves as a parable,Ellipse and hyperbola.
I hope that this list of labor, the elderly have sparks your interest in mathematics to encourage you again to this problem that is hated as a kid and probably realize that it is not so bad.
