History of Calculus Calculus is an integral part of the mathematics world. Various mathematicians coming from all parts of the world have shaped this theorem but the two main contributors are Sir Isaac Newton and Wilhelm Von Leibniz. The reason they are considered the inventors of Calculus is because they were able to give a unified approach to tangent and area problems unlike the others who used specific methods. Both of these mathematicians developed general concepts Newton was associated with

What Do Mathematics and Being a Math Teacher Mean to Me? Mathematics‚ for me‚ is a science of systematic way of thinking. Symbols (e.g. numbers) are meant for representation‚ accuracy and precision. Mensuration‚ which is very useful both in practical purposes and other sciences‚ is a great example as proof. Manipulation of these symbols produces systematic representation and pattern. For an instance‚ an individual who is good in constructing‚ determining‚ and manipulating equations as well as inequalities

Geometry Rationale Geometry is Greek for geos‚ which means Earth‚ and metron meaning measure. It can conceivably lay claim to being the oldest branch of mathematics outside arithmetic‚ and humanity has probably used geometrical techniques since before the dawn of recorded history. Initially‚ as with the Egyptians‚ geometry originated from practical necessity and the need to measure land. Geometry today is the science of observing and measuring shapes‚ surfaces‚ angles‚ lines and the relationships

Sir Isaac Newton was‚ among many other things‚ a physicist‚ mathematician and astronomer. Newton was born was born 3 months after the death of his father‚ on January 4th of 1643 in Woolsthorpe‚ Lincolnshire‚ England. Known commonly as the Father of Modern Science‚ Sir Newton’s discoveries were plenty and spanned over many different concentrations in science that he most certainly deserves the title. He helped develop the field of calculus as well as the laws of light and color and the laws of gravity

Don’t be dismayed‚ you’re not alone. There are many. While the geeks and nerds are enjoying problem solving‚ others surely hate the ancient Greeks for inventing Mathematics. Others have hatred or lack of enthusiasm with this subject. One that aggravates their frustration is the experience of spending hours solving complex math
