Extractions: Math 111 Class Presentation The Hindu-Arabic Place Value System The Hindu-Arabic place value system is our number system. The name is because of its origins in India and its delivery to the West by the Arabs. Historians dont know the actual origins of the digits 1 through 9, the idea of place value, and the use of 0, but have pieced things together the best that they could. The Babylonians had a place value system of based 60. This was used by the Greeks for their astronomical calculations, but did not influence how they wrote their numbers in other situations. The Chinese from early times had a multiplicative system of base ten, with symbols representing each power of ten. The Brahmi system of writing in India originated in third-century BCE, with the symbols for the first nine numbers being the origin to our symbols for 1 through 9. They also had symbols for ten through ninety. Larger numbers were represented by combining the symbol for 100 or 1000 with a symbol of a smaller number, much like the Chinese system. It seems that the Indians dropped the symbols higher than nine around the year 600, and began using the symbols 1 through 9 in our familiar system to write larger numbers.

Lesson Six Radicals The word radical comes from a Latin word radix, meaning root. A Germanmathematician named christoff rudolff who first used it in 1525 invented it. http://www.personal.psu.edu/faculty/j/x/jxt18/Math21_WEB/Lesson6/lesson_six.htm
Mathist Answer christoff rudolff. Actually, he didnt invent the square root, the ideaexisted for quite some time, but he was the first one to use this notation . http://www.mathstudio.com/mathist.htm
Extractions: When you look at this page it looks like all these guys were born and then mysteriously died a few days later. Is this some type of uncontrollable disease? No, it's the result of crushing 6,000 years into 365 days. January first begins with the year 4,000 BC and the year ends with 2,000 AD. This year features the birthdays of selected mathematicians throughout history with scaled dates to match this Math History Calendar. On the first day of March at 7:12 pm, Creteans sailed from the island of Crete to mainland Greece. Nineteen days later the ancient Egyptians succeeded in creating a calendar. Had they not done this, I could be basing this whole thing on shooting stars or asteroids instead of a calendar. On March 26 at 2:24 am, the Khufu pyramid was completed. Talk about late night shifts, those workers must have been worn out! Each block weighs about 2 tons! That is half the weight of an adult male Asian elephant. The workers were able to make a pyramid that was 450 feet tall with a 756 foot long square base. It is not only amazing that they were able to keep the base square, but that they managed to pull all of the heavy stones up 450 feet. Another interesting thing is that they used a ratio of 11 to 14 while building the pyramids. How did they manage this with the small amount of technology they had? Maybe it was...ALIENS!!!

Strassburger and William J Hinke (Norristown Pennsylvania German Society, 1934; reprinted by Genealogical Publishing Co. and Picton Press).

Renessansen Selv om desimaltall var på vei inn i matematikken gjennom arbeidene til FrancoisViete (15401603) og christoff rudolff (1500?- 1549?), var de ikke akseptert http://mix.hive.no/~lenelu/Norsk/tverrfaglig/desimaltall1.html
Extractions: Renessansen Simon Stevin og desimaltallene Simon Stevin levde fra1548 til 1620. Han ble født i Brugge i Belgia som på den tiden var under spansk styre. Siden Stevin var en fremragende ingeniør, fikk han en rekke viktige oppgaver i frigjøringskampen mot spanjolene, og han utviklet en rekke matematiske metoder til hjelp i krigføringen. I perioden 1571- 1581 reiste han rundt i Europa, Norge inkludert.. På denne tiden var Europa splittet i et stort antall kongedømmer og fyrstedømmer. De fleste av dem hadde sine egne valutaer, og kursene mellom dem varierte slik de gjør i dag. Kursen ble som vanlig oppgitt som brøk. Underenhetene av de forskjellige valutaer , slik som øre og kroner behøvde ikke alltid være en tidel eller en hundredel av den store enheten. For eksempel svarte en Gulden til 20 Shilling og en Shilling til 12 Heller. Omregning fra en valuta til en annen krevde dermed gode kunnskaper i brøkregning. Hvis også vareenheten var gitt som en brøk, for eksempel tre firedels tønne korn, var det nokså kompliserte brøkregningsstykker som skulle utføres før en kunne finne prisen på en vare. Stevin som var mye på reise i Europa forsto hvordan bruken av desimaltallene kunne lette slike beregninger enormt. Desimaltall hadde vært i bruk av arabere og kinesere lenge før Stevins tid, men de hadde ikke vært i bruk i Europa i middelalderen eller renessansen. Bøker i aritmetikk som ble skrevet i Europa fra det 13. til det 16. århundre hadde riktignok tatt for seg det hindu-arabiske posisjonssystemet, men hadde bare brukt det på hele tall. Hvis det var bruk for desimaler ble de skrevet som brøk. Et av de viktigste bidragene til Simon Stevin var å innføre hensiktsmessige notasjoner for desimaltallene for på den måten å sette fart i innføringen v dem. Selv om desimaltall var på vei inn i matematikken gjennom arbeidene til Francois Viete (1540-1603) og Christoff Rudolff (1500?- 1549?), var de ikke akseptert i samfunnet generelt.

Extractions: In summarzing the mathematical achievements of the sixteenth century, We can say that symbolic algebra was well started, computation with the Hindu-Ariabic numerals became standardized, decimal fractions were developed, the cubic and quartic equations were solved and the theory of equations generally advanced, negative numbers were becoming accepted trigonometry was perfected and systematized, and some excellent tables were computed. The stage was set for the remarkable strides of the next century.
