Greeks. The culture and idea of the Greeks were fading‚ but the Muslims translated their works into Arabic and developed from their ideas. The Muslims translated and studied Euclid’s Elements on geometry that contributed to the discovery of algebra and trigonometry. In addition‚ the Muslims corrected Greek ideas and understood that rays of light affect vision. Moreover‚ the Muslim intellectual life benefited individuals’ well-being with the advancement of the medical field. The Muslims had the knowledge

It will also cause it to fall down the steep sloop it travels to get to the first drop. To name a few‚ geometry‚ algebra and trigonometry are used when a roller coaster is being designed. There are various types of rides and they all have to be built differently. The corkscrew is shaped like a twisted spiral. Geometry definitely plays a big part in the creation of this ride

best for a student to start taking classes while still in high school. When a person starts college as a freshman there are certain prerequisites that must be taken during their high school years‚ such as studying algebra for two years‚ and one year each of chemistry‚ physics‚ and trigonometry. Starting these studies early on would be beneficial for the time it will take a person to earn a degree in college (Key elements‚ 2012).
