indeterminate linear equations. By contrast‚ most Egyptians of this era‚ as well as Greek and Chinese mathematics in the 1st millennium BC‚ usually solved such equations by geometric methods‚ such as those described in the Rhind Mathematical Papyrus‚ Euclid’s Elements‚ and The Nine Chapters on the Mathematical Art. The geometric work of the Greeks‚ typified in the Elements‚ provided the framework for generalizing formulae beyond the solution of particular problems into more general systems of stating

Biography Name While there is a tendency to misspell his name as "Aryabhatta" by analogy with other names having the "bhatta" suffix‚ his name is properly spelled Aryabhata: every astronomical text spells his name thus‚[1] including Brahmagupta’s references to him "in more than a hundred places by name".[2] Furthermore‚ in most instances "Aryabhatta" does not fit the metre either.[1] [edit] Birth Aryabhata mentions in the Aryabhatiya that it was composed 3‚600 years into the Kali Yuga‚ when

Shape is another element of design‚ shapes can be either organic or geometric. Organic shapes are natural‚ a prime example would be nature. The shape of the waves are organic‚ the artist added his own style of how the wave looks‚ but the organic shape of the wave we can

Object recognition is one of the most essential elements for the survival of all living creatures. Object recognition is considered the determination of the implication of a certain object. Object recognition is imperative given that humans and other living creatures manage to respond to the imperative features of the presented object. Assuming that present information concerning an object appears in two dimensions within the eye retina‚ there are many possibilities of confusing the same object with

labourer. A lot of the work he creates is influenced by his experiences of farm life- the deconstruction of nature‚ the cycle of life and death and the role it plays in nature‚ simple farm objects such as bales of hay or broken walls and even the geometric aspects of the cultivated land itself. These influences show very clearly in his work and demonstrate the impact his childhood and younger life had on the work he creates today. The fact that Andy is an avid environmentalist also shows through in

Funk & Wagnalls Dictionary Topology. That branch of geometry which deals with the topological properties of figures. Combinatorial topology is the branch of topology which is the study of geometric forms by decomposing them into the simplest geometric figures (simplexes) which adjoin each other in a regular fashion.

of today. European countries did not obtain information on algebra until relatively later years of the 12th century. After algebra was discovered in Europe‚ mathematicians put the information to use in very remarkable ways. Also‚ algebraic and geometric ways of thinking were considered to be two separate parts of math and were not unified until the mid 17th century. The simplest forms of equations in algebra were actually discovered 2‚200 years before Mohamed was born. Ahmes wrote the Rhind Papyrus
