When Ramanujan was thirteen‚ he could work out Loney’s Trigonometry exercises without any help. At the of fourteen‚ he was able to acquire the theorems of cosine and sine given by L. Euler. Synopsis of Elementary Results in Pure and Applied Mathematics by George Shoobridge Carr was reached by him in 1903. The book

Nationality: Greek Title: Regarded as “Father of Science” Contributions: * He is credited with the first use of deductive reasoning applied to geometry. * Discovery that a circle is bisected by its diameter‚ that the base angles of an isosceles triangle are equal and that vertical angles are equal. * Accredited with foundation of the Ionian school of Mathematics that was a centre of learning and research

INTRODUCTION: "India was the motherland of our race and Sanskrit the mother of Europe’s languages. India was the mother of our philosophy‚ of much of our mathematics‚ of the ideals embodied in Christianity... of self-government and democracy. In many ways‚ Mother India is the mother of us all." - Will Durant‚ American Historian 1885-1981 Mathematics is an important field of study. Mathematics is essential as it helps in developing lots of realistic skills‚ in fact study of mathematics itself include

While one pursuing being a writer should not have to learn trigonometry or advanced physics‚ ascertaining algebra and simple biology will simply help by opening one’s mind to a higher learning. Matthew Arnold poses interesting arguments that seem to push literature into a higher class than science. One who studies literature will see

Researchers think that The Scientific Revolution approached many of the modern sciences. It started in Europe at the end of the Renaissance in the late 18th century. It highly influenced the age of enlightenment. It began in 1543 as a movement distinguishing science from religion and philosophy. Scientific knowledge had a little change in experiment. The Catholic Church kept a stereotype system in teaching‚ it was the ancient Greeks and Romans which depends on religious doctrine. Francis Bacon was

developing an analog of trigonometry—a subject built upon analysis of the circle—for something that is not quite a circle. Our primary model is the unit squircle‚ the superellipse defined as the set of points (x‚ y) in the plane satisfying x 4 + y 4 = 1‚ depicted in F IGURE 1. It is a closed curve about the origin‚ but while any line through the origin is a line of symmetry of the circle‚ there are only four lines of symmetry for the squircle. Many familiar notions from trigonometry have natural analogs

An oncologist is a doctor who practices exclusively in the treatment of cancer. “Because cancer can affect any organ in the body‚ and individuals of any age‚ there are many different kinds of oncologists” (Ferguson 118). For example‚ a pediatric oncologist works to treat and diagnose cancers that affect children (Brown). “Cancer found in children is not common‚ and is different in children than in adults. Pediatric oncologists receive special training in these differences and in how to relate to
