    Archimedes is also known for his approximation of pi (p). His method for finding the approximation was by "circumscribing and inscribing a circle with regular polygons having ninety-six sides". Archimedes stated that the value of p was between 31/7 and 310/71. Some of his other theorems concern the centers of gravity of solids and plane figures. Remarkably‚ some of Archimedes’s methods anticipated many discoveries

    In this circle‚ he drew a six-sided polygon‚ with each vertex touching part of the circle. Similarly‚ he drew a hexagon on the outside of the circle‚ with each segment’s midpoint touching part of the circle. He calculated the perimeters of both figures. Archimedes then proceeded to double the sides of the polygons‚ now having two twelve-sided figures‚ and again found the perimeters. He continued in the fashion of doubling the number of sides of each polygon until he had two ninety-six-sided

    observations in each class. Class midpoint and class interval. The midpoint is halfway between the lower limits of two consecutive classes. It is computed by adding the lower limits of consecutive classes and dividing the result by 2. A frequency polygon also shows the shape of a distribution and is similar to a histogram. It consists of line segments connecting the points formed by the intersections of the class midpoints and the class frequencies. Chapter Summary I. A frequency table is a grouping
