Report Famous Mathematician: Pythagoras Introduction: Pythagoras’ Theorem is actively used and is a crucial part of trigonometry in present-day mathematics. Pythagoras‚ living approximately from 570 – 495BC‚ in Greece‚ is believed to have founded the Pythagoras’ Theorem among a cult‚ which Aristotle believed to be the beginning of an advance in Mathematics. In fact‚ there is evidence that the theorem had been discovered and used perhaps a thousand years earlier than Pythagoras by the ancient Chinese

John has $20‚000 to invest. He invests part of his money at an annual interest rate of 6%‚ the rest at 9% annual rate. The return on these two investments over one year is $1‚440. How much does he invest at each rate? Solution Paul made two investments totaling $15‚000. The percentage return on the first investment was 7% annually‚ while the the percentage return on the second one was 10% annually. If the total return on the two investments over one year was $1‚350‚ how much was invested

Mathematics and art have a long historical relationship. The ancient Egyptians and ancient Greeks knew about the golden ratio‚ regarded as an aesthetically pleasing ratio‚ and incorporated it into the design of monuments including the Great Pyramid‚[1] theParthenon‚ the Colosseum. There are many examples of artists who have been inspired by mathematics and studied mathematics as a means of complementing their works. The Greek sculptor Polykleitos prescribed a series of mathematical proportions for
