Valerie Caballero Jessica Vecchio Euler Leonhard Euler was a respected and well-known Swiss Mathematician and physicist who was credited to be one of the pure founders of mathematics. Leonhard Euler was born on April 15, 1707 and died September 18, 1783. He was a Swiss mathematician, physicist, astronomer, logician and engineer. He made many discoveries in different branches of mathematics such as infinitesimal calculus and graph theory, as well as pioneering contributions to topology and

The Simpsons and Their Mathematical Secrets by Simon Singh is a trade book that talks about the history of The Simpsons and Futurama and how mathematics is embedded into numerous episodes in each series. Along the way Singh, in addition to the other main writers for The Simpsons, talk about many of the subtle math jokes that are present. These jokes range from very simple jokes that students in elementary school could understand to jokes that not even some mathematics professors with doctorate degrees

Geometry and Algebra / By: Brianna Baker Five ways to use geometry in life is by: making my bed, telling time on a clock, wrestling, driving, and doing geometry in math class. When making a bed you use angles by horizontally pulling the covers up on to the rectangular mattress where they belong. Telling time uses angles by the short hand moving every hour and the long hand moving every minute. The hands are always either in an obtuse or acute angle. Wresting

better way to be doing it. This was very discouraging at times. What was even more discouraging was that I was constantly told that I was doing a great job and such a valued member of the team but no one ever said what I was doing a great job at and to be honest I am unsure they even knew what I was doing half time time or realized how it in the long term would be helpful. Volunteers need to have their efforts recognized and need to know when something is being done incorrectly otherwise that volunteer

THEORITICAL FORMULATION AND FAMILIARIZATION STUDY OF GEOMETRICALLY NONLINEAR ANALYSIS OF TRUSS SYSTEMS PREAMBLE Successful implementation of the procedures in computer programs requires a thorough understanding of the associated algorithms. It is important to familiarize with the theoretical formulations along with pertinent equations. A brief description about the procedure is presented in the following sections. MEMBER FORCE – DISPLACEMENT RELATIONS Case 1: Member orientation coinciding

The Big Boat Going to the LACMA art museum was a very good experience to see many different types of artwork by different artists. In 1920 Robert Michel created a painting named “Ship”, which it contained many visual elements such as cool and warm colors curvilinear geometric figures. First of all, Michel shows the viewer a lot of curvilinear lines meaning a consisting of, bounded by, or characterized by a curved line, or a along a curved line of a set of coordinates determined by or determining

future Socrates was one of the greatest philosophers of the ancient world. His teachings inspired young philosophers to go and explore the world. In addition, His Knowledge even influenced boundless minds like Plato, who help make gigantic pushes in geometry. Or Aristotle, who mad giant leaps in astronomy (also made a theory that the earth was round in about 384 B. C.). therefore, a new era of philosophy was inaugurated and the course of western civilization was decisively shaped. Modern mathematics

Soon after civilizations emerged so did geometry. The early civilizations of the Egyptians and Babylonians had a good grasp on mathematics and carried out calculations in practical ways for building structures. The Egyptians and Babylonians even appeared to know the Pythagorean Theorem, filled by tablets with impressive tablets of triplets. (Mlodinow, 2002) Despite the Egyptians accomplishments and Babylonians cleverness their contributions to mathematics were limited to providing the Greek with

Towards the end of my last semester of my junior year, I was struggling to pass Algebra 2-Trig. I had failed one semester and I had to pass the final to be able to pass the class. Math has always been my academic weakness growing. I always was able to just enough to pass, so passing this final was a complete struggle. I had to do a rigorous cramming session of the weekend before I took that final. I studied for about 30 out of the 48 hours I had of the weekend. I gathered a bunch of notes and went

Few people’s work impact the society they lived in quite as much as Denis Diderot’s did. Diderot, who authored both of the given extracts as well as much of the encyclopedie was a French philosopher and writer. He was born in France in 1713 in a provincial familty. He studied in a Jesuit school but promptly lost his religious faith after studying in Paris. He went on to edit The Encyclopedie, which was a translation and extension upon on the English Cyclopedia. Produced between 1751 and 1772, the
