The life and brutal death of Hypatia of Alexandria has been a topic of debatable discussion since the 4th century C.E. She lived Alexandria‚ Egypt (the center of ancient knowledge) and while it is assumed that she learned the study of mathematics from her father‚ “Theon of Alexandria” it is known that she was the head geometry teacher of the Neo-Platonist school (Belenky‚ 2010). Hypatia is regarded as one of the first women that contributed in many ways to the field of mathematical findings that

“the number of dots in an equilateral triangle uniformly filled with dots”. The sequence of triangular numbers are derived from all natural numbers and zero‚ if the following number is always added to the previous as shown below‚ a triangular number will always be the outcome: 1 = 1 2 + 1 = 3 3 + (2 + 1) = 6 4 + (1 + 2 + 3) = 10 5 + (1 + 2 + 3 + 4) = 15 Moreover‚ triangular numbers can be seen in other mathematical theories‚ such as Pascal’s triangle‚ as shown in the diagram below.

Historians and Philosophers. Though we know he was a Greek philosopher and mathematician mainly known for the Pythagorean Theorem that we all learned in 6th grade. (a2 + b2 = c2). His theorem states that that the square of the hypotenuse (c2) of a right triangle is equal to the two legs squared (a2 + b2). With the endless amounts of angles somehow making a 90 degree angle‚ you’d be surprised how often people use this theorem to solve everyday needs. It can easily be applied to architecture and construction

Through his work in probability‚ Pascal invented the binomial coefficients which are now known as Pascal’s Triangle. Pascal’s major input to the philosophy of mathematics came with his “Of the Geometric Spirit””.1 Blaise Pascal was also a major contributor to the founding of Statistics.

FIRE TRIANGLE In order to understand how fire extinguishers work‚ you first need to know a little bit about fire. Four things that must be present at the same time in order to produce a fire : * Enough oxygen to sustain combustion. * Enough heat to raise the material to its ignition temperature. * Some sort of fuel or combustible material. * The chemical‚ exothermic reaction that is fire. Take a look at the following diagram called the “Fire Triangle”. Oxygen‚ heat‚ and fuel

Justify by citing examples the use of Truman’s triangle in classifying technology across generations Truman’s triangle is a relationship triangle developed by Truman Reynolds that attempts to compare three attributes of a network‚ object or service. The principle behind the triangle expresses the facts that when three attributes are to be evaluated‚ the first two (randomly chosen) attributes will always disagree or not favor the last attribute

Discussion Topic #1 The fraud Triangle is a very important tool in seeking to understand why people commit fraud. In the examination of any fraud case according to the Fraud triangle there are three major elements‚ pressure‚ opportunity and rationalization. To illustrate the relevance of these three factors we can examine a recent fraud case i.e. the South Carolina Hospitality Association. In this case Rachel Duncan was the accountant for South Carolina Hospitality association‚ she is charged with
