Algebraic geometry

Abstract— Today we use many concepts passed down from generation to generation to solve our physics, mathematics and other general problems. We use concepts that originated in the minds of great mathematicians such as Newton, Leibniz, the Bernoulli family of mathematicians and many others. In the 18th century we find the mathematicians started to structure and format the way we prove solutions. These mathematicians started creating the laws that govern our work and how we go about solving daily

(Katz, 2007, p.198). Algebraic reasoning is abstract in nature, also the use of mathematical symbols and structural features related to the learning of algebra turns it into a challenging element of mathematics. (Ayieko, 2016, p.140). Traditionally the study of algebra postponed until adolescence because the need of analytical skills. (Carraher, 2006, p.87). In the elementary

Diophantus was exceptional mathematician born between the the years of 200 and 214 BC.the area in which he spent most of his life was Alexandria .at the time Alexandria was going through the silber age in which it was the center of much greek culture and knowledge.As great of a mathematicain in which he was ,not much information is regarded towards his own personal life only thing known about him was interpreted in the form of mathematical puzzle which describes his life in his years throughout

Have you ever looked into the concepts behind what makes a tessellation? Tessellations are made using a combination of artistic and mathematical abilities. M.C. Escher was a talented man from the Netherlands who made tessellations. He made such interesting art pieces of various types by using mathematical concepts and artistic details. M.C. Escher’s techniques on his tessellations made them stand out to viewers. M.C. Escher was born in 1898 as Maurits Cornelis Escher ("Biography"). He was

Pythagoras was an exceptional thinker who had a crucial impact on the field of mathematics. His unique ways of thinking and problem solving led to him creating a new theorem, entitled the Pythagorean Theorem, which significantly changed what was known about math. Although there are no known books written about or by Pythagoras from that time, he was influential in the math field and its expansion. Pythagoras was born in Samos to parents Mnesarchus and Pythais. Samos was an island off the coast of

The mission of Julia Robinson Mathematics Festival (JRMF) activities is to connect pre-college students with the working community of research mathematicians and the world of recreational mathematics. We expose students and their teachers to advanced mathematics in an engaging way that affects both their content knowledge and their attitude towards the subject. We accomplish this by running joyous cooperative events at schools, universities, and community centers after school, involving students

How important should geometry be in the primary grades, the intermediate grades, and the middle school grades? Please support and explain your answer. Geometry helps us understand and describe the world around us. Geometric concepts are used in architecture, engineering, astronomy, art, navigation, sports, furniture design, toy making, road building-the list goes on and on. Children are generally engaged in geometric thinking when they choose the shortest path to the playground, pack food and

The repetition of circles and spheres in the image is the most intriguing and likely among the most important repetitions in the image, particularly the spheres. The large sphere in the background resembles the frame of a globe, as in the world. The sphere that hangs from the deity’s sickle explicitly resembles the Earth (our world, not the deity), complete with engraved continents. This particular sphere almost explicitly states that the spheres in the image refer to our world. Now, turning back

Subsequent to the conquest of Egypt by Alexander the Great, the ancient Greeks established possibly the greatest center of learning at the time in Alexandria. Indeed, history purports that perhaps this great library rivaled even the great library in Athens, especially considering the fact that the Alexandrian library produced such significant mathematical figures as Archimedes and Euclid, the works of whom likely depended on the earlier works of great Greek mathematicians like Thales and Pythagoras
