Add Maths Project Work

For my Art in History Math project, I researched math in the Middle East. The Middle East has a great history of innovation and discovery relating to math. Buildings decorated with complicated geometrical patterns are common. Many such decorations and designs are found at holy sites and in temples. What's more, these geometric designs demonstrate their understanding of math in addition to having religious meaning. Ancient people in the Middle East discovered how to draw three dimensional shapes on a two dimensional surface. Some Middle Eastern religions teach that everything is made from a creator’s thoughts. Furthermore, such art includes purposeful errors in support of the belief that no one but God is perfect. It is also a tradition that

Another thing to recognize when mentioning ancient China’s contributions to geometry is “The Nine Chapters on the Mathematical Art.” It first appeared around 179 AD on a bronze statue description but it didn’t grow much attention until Liu Hui, another mathematician, mentions it many centuries later down the road. Within the book’s contents held mathematical problems that geometry was applied to. It also held other important information such as finding surface areas for squares and circles, the volumes of solids in various three-dimensional shapes, and included the use of the Pythagorean

The pentangle is said to have been a symbol devised by the wisest man ever, according to the

Guidelines are created to ensure a success interview process. Setup meeting time with the individuals, which will be interviewed and be prepared and on time. When conducting the interview examine the background of the organization and have a checklist readily available. Be on time for the interview be sure to pay close attention to what the user is saying and what the company are looking for. Refrain form using computer and information technology jargon. Collect both qualitative and quantitative information from the user. Distinguish between what is a desirable and essential requirement. Repeat back to the user what is

This is proof of the Sumerian architectural abilities. The architecture in Mesopotamia are considered to have been contemporary with the founding of the Sumerian cities, but there was some complexity in the architectural design during this Protoliterate period (c. 3400-c. 2900 BC). This is shown in the design of many religious buildings. Typical temples of the Protoliterate period--both the platform type and the type built at ground level--are, however, much more elaborate both in planning and ornament. The interior was decorated with cones sunk into the wall, covered in bronze. Most cities were simple in structure, but the ziggurat was one of the world's first complex architectural structures.

Their architectural innovations included arches, columns, ramps, and the pyramid-shaped ziggurat.” Prior to this point, structures

What is the purpose of a geometric character analysis? It may seem a bit weird to compare people to shapes, and maybe even offensive. If someone told you that you were a green triangle, what would you do? Would you know that green triangle was actually a symbol for you? You might be a sturdy, hard working, and persistent person.

Early Mapmaking: The Babylonians made the first recorded maps around 2300 BC. Early maps displayed the Earth as a cylinder,

History has been passed down but have never been documented. About 2000 B.C.E., history has been recorded on cuneiform tablets. From circa 1900 – 1600 B.C.E. Gilgamesh stories and literature were recorded by the Akkadians. But without the cuneiforms, an invention credited with the Sumerians, there probably would not be stories, literature, or history of the Gilgamesh to be passed on to know about today. Another invention credited with the Sumerians, is the ziggurat. The ziggurat was established by King Urnammu from circa 2500 – 2050 B.C.E. It was made of mud brick. The Sumerian’s architecture were square or rectangular that was made of mud bricks but the layout of the temples were built on raised platforms. The temple is actually on top of the ziggurat. It is believed that it will bring worshipers closer to heaven. Without the ziggurat, which was credited with the Sumerians, religious beliefs would have stayed the same. With the ziggurats, the Sumerians valued the religious

Step Three: Identify the height and length of the trapezoid. (The parallel sides of the trapezoid have a length of a and b. The height of the trapezoid is a+b.)

Geometry is present in art since prehistoric times. Primitive people showed an intuitive notion of geometry in their own

1. Recognize and draw shapes having specified attributes, such as a given number of angles or a given number of equal faces.1 Identify triangles, quadrilaterals, pentagons, hexagons, and cubes.
3. Partition circles and rectangles into two, three, or four equal shares, describe the shares using the words halves, thirds, half of, a third of, etc., and describe the whole as two halves, three thirds,

Justification: It gives the teachers a chance to draw and model quadrilaterals. Then it suggests partners to draw together and present them to the class.

The Protogeometric and Geometric periods are good examples of such advanced thinking. The beginnings of the Protogeometric period display a distinct interest in mathematical order. During this period, artists decorated vases with circles and symmetrical patterns. As the dominant style changed from Protogeometric to Geometric, this order and precision was amplified. The popular ?circle and semicircle patterns were replaced by linear designs, zigzags, triangles, diamonds, and meanders? (Cunningham, 40). The increased interest in order seems to have been a reflection of the Greek fascination with nature, and man?s relationship to nature.

Nubian pyramids demonstrate the Nubians use of geometry as it would have been necessary to build such pyramids.
