From Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. Mathematics is the study of quantity, structure, space, and change. Mathematicians seek out patterns, formulate new conjectures, and establish truth by rigorous deduction from appropriately chosen axioms and definitions. There is debate over whether mathematical objects such as numbers and points exist naturally or are human creations. The mathematician Benjamin Peirce called mathematics "the science that draws necessary conclusions". Albert Einstein, on the other hand, stated that "as far as the laws of mathematics refer to reality, they are not certain; and as far as they are certain, they do not refer to reality." Through the use of abstraction and logical reasoning, mathematics evolved from counting, calculation, measurement, and the systematic study of the shapes and motions of physical objects. Practical mathematics has been a human activity for as far back as written records exist. Rigorous arguments first appeared in Greek mathematics, most notably in Euclid's Elements. Mathematics continued to develop, in fitful bursts, until the Renaissance, when mathematical innovations interacted with new scientific discoveries, leading to an acceleration in research that continues to the present day. Today, mathematics is used throughout the world as an essential tool in many fields, including natural science, engineering, medicine, and the social sciences. Applied mathematics, the branch of mathematics concerned with application of mathematical knowledge to other fields, inspires and makes use of new mathematical discoveries and sometimes leads to the development of entirely new disciplines. Mathematicians also engage in pure mathematics, or mathematics for its own sake, without having any application in mind, although practical applications for what began as pure mathematics are often discovered later.

I need to know another mathematical development that Pythagoras accomplished besides the Pythagorean Theorem. What was one other mathematical development of Pythagoras besides the Pythagorean Theorem? Please list your website source. Thanks so much. P.S. Please simplify the information that an eighth grader would understand. Asked by BK - Thu Jan 8 15:05:17 2009 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments A. It's hard to say what was really from Pythagoras himself and what came out of the Pythagoreans (the group of mathematicans he led) in general. But here are a couple of more: 1) The sum of the angles of a triangle is "equal to two right angles". (In other words,if you add up the three angles of a triangle you always get 180 degrees.) 2) The discover of irrational numbers (numbers that can't be written in the form of a/b, where a and b are whole numbers). 3) The 5 platonic solids. 4) He disovered a lot of relations between whole number ratios and things like music, architecture, etc. He showed that strings that were in simple whole number ratios produced pitches that were consonant with each other.

I am taking a class on mathematical finance (Discrete Time Models in Financial Math). However, the textbook for the class is very brief and barely explains any concepts. What is the best Mathematical finance book I can buy which covers forwards, futures and options, interest rates, managing risk using hedging, binomial and multiple period trees, bond models, numerial methods to price options. OR are all books on these topics not good? I need a book that explains stuff instead of just stating formulas and stuff. Asked by twstedlogic - Sun Sep 27 00:04:43 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments A. your best bet is definitely not barnes and noble etc. I highly reccomend going to any local college bookstore, such as your Local 4 year college- i would say your local county college, but chances are they dont offer many finance courses. Go to a 4 year university and buy their Corporate finance book. it will cover everything you need to know, and give you insight into some other topics that you may choose to study more indepth.

Q. How would I describe the degrees and angles in the spins and turns in mathematical form for my math paper? Asked by Bethany - Thu Aug 21 18:02:38 2008 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments A. well the angle of entry into the water, good divers enter from a straight line into the water, but a more diver would be angled a few degrees up or down also how many degrees do the rotate, as they spin on x or y axis kinda like skateboarders do they spin 90 degrees, 180, 360, 720 degrees or a sick 900 degrees as they spin in mid air do they do a pike position in the air which would be a 90 degrees angles with arms touching feet at 45 degrees each, if their form is a perfect they should form a triangle if you want more tutoring on math problems you can contact us at we can tutor you by email and phone if you live far from our center also you can talk about the height of their jump from the diving board also the angles of the divers… [cont.] Answered by sensei ronald j.f. panlilio - Thu Aug 21 18:18:33 2008 From Yahoo Answer Search: "mathematical"  news.google.com The Associated Press Gelfand, from Ukraine, was a distinguished professor of mathematics at Rutgers University.
