THE WIZARD OF OZ 2 The Wizard of Oz Scarecrow’s Speech on Pythagorean Theorem The Pythagorean theorem is one of the earliest theorems known to ancient civilization. The well-known theorem is named after the Greek mathematician and philosopher‚ Pythagoras. In the Wizard of Oz‚ after the Scarecrow gets a brain‚ he states the Pythagorean theorem. However‚ he mistakenly says it applies to an isosceles triangle when it applies to a right triangle. He not only says the wrong triangle

central The Central Limit Theorem A long standing problem of probability theory has been to find necessary and sufficient conditions for approximation of laws of sums of random variables. Then came Chebysheve‚ Liapounov and Markov and they came up with the central limit theorem. The central limit theorem allows you to measure the variability in your sample results by taking only one sample and it gives a pretty nice way to calculate the probabilities for the total ‚ the average and the proportion

Fermat’s last theorem Currently holding the world record for longest standing math problem ever‚ Fermat’s last theorem went unsolved for 365 years. Fermat’s last theorem was one of the largest white whales in the study of math. Over the centuries‚ thousands were puzzled by the impossible problem. From its conception to its solution‚ Fermat’s last theorem was one of the most difficult to solve yet easy to understand problems in mathematics. First‚ I will discuss the theorem and how it was introduced

Bernoulli’s theorem i Bernoulli’s theorem‚ in fluid dynamics‚ relation among the pressure‚ velocity‚ and elevation in a moving fluid (liquid or gas)‚ the compressibility and viscosity (internal friction) of which are negligible and the flow of which is steady‚ or laminar. First derived (1738) by the Swiss mathematicianDaniel Bernoulli‚ the theorem states‚ in effect‚ that the total mechanical energy of the flowing fluid‚ comprising the energy associated with fluid pressure‚ the gravitational potential

The Pythagorean theorem (A^2 + B^2 = C^2) has been impacting all types of people and careers since it was first realized during Ancient Greece times. It is one of the most widely recognized theorems in the mathematics community‚ and used much more than the average person knows: whether you need need to know the dimensions of a bag or you need find the distance from location to another‚ the Pythagorean theorem can be used. Everyone who was taught this theorem in their first year of algebra continues

mathematics that developed from simple measurements. A theorem is the most important result in all of elementary mathematics. It was the motivation for a wealth of advanced mathematics‚ such as Fermat’s Last Theorem and the theory of Hilbert space. The Pythagorean Theorem asserts that for a right triangle‚ the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. There are many ways to prove the Pythagorean Theorem. A particularly simple one is the scaling relationship

CENTRAL LIMIT THEOREM There are many situations in business where populations are distributed normally; however‚ this is not always the case. Some examples of distributions that aren’t normal are incomes in a region that are skewed to one side and if you need to are looking at people’s ages but need to break them down to for men and women. We need a way to look at the frequency distributions of these examples. We can find them by using the Central Limit Theorem. The Central Limit Theorem states that

People with schizophrenia are potentially dangers. The violence that results from schizophrenia is less frequent than people may believe‚ but that idea should not suggest that medication is not needed. Violence does occur‚ none the less. “The symptoms of schizophrenia fall into three broad categories: positive symptoms‚ negative symptoms‚ and cognitive symptoms” (National Institute of Mental Health. 2009) The negative symptoms includes the flat effect‚ lack of pleasure‚ speaking little‚ and lack
