proof‚ the icing on the cake‚ algebra and geometry playing equal parts. In a similar manner‚ algebraic formulas can also be derived from geometric diagrams. A good example would be the conics. One can’t imagine the conics without their respective geometric diagrams. Not only is geometry tied into algebra in that sense‚ but the fact that the curves had been under scrutiny by the Greeks‚ the greatest exponents of geometry‚ shows their inclination toward some algebra. Numerical approximations for

The History of Algebra The history of algebra has been around for several decades‚ this method of mathematics has been used during the beginning of time. The development of algebraic notation progressed through out three stages: the rhetorical stage‚ the syncopated stage‚ and the symbolic stage with which we are use to using in our daily usage of algebra. In ancient civilization math was used to help leaders to strategically form how their troops should be lined up for battle and help decide

1 CHAPTER 3 PLANE AND SPHERICAL TRIGONOMETRY 3.1 Introduction It is assumed in this chapter that readers are familiar with the usual elementary formulas encountered in introductory trigonometry. We start the chapter with a brief review of the solution of a plane triangle. While most of this will be familiar to readers‚ it is suggested that it be not skipped over entirely‚ because the examples in it contain some cautionary notes concerning hidden pitfalls. This is followed by a quick review of spherical

Algebra Algebra was invented by the Muslim mathematician Al-Khwarizmi in the book he wrote in 820. Algebra is the Arabic word (aljabr) for "equation"‚ and the word "algorithm" comes from the author’s name‚ Al-Khwarizmi. He is rightly known as "the father of Algebra The roots of algebra can be traced to the ancient Babylonians‚ who developed an advanced arithmetical system with which they were able to do calculations in analgorithmic fashion. The Babylonians developed formulas to calculate solutions
