“You know how many
sciences had origin in
India. Mathematics began
there. You are even
counting 1,2,3,etc to zero
after Sanskrit figures and
you all know that algebra
also originated in India.”

Even simple arithmetical operations were not known
or could not be performed in the European number
system before the introduction of the Hindu-Arabic
decimal system some 1000 years ago.
How ridiculous is their claim of making very
complicated computations during those days when
they had only the primitive type of number symbols or
numerals only ? (Refer to the Greek, Roman and other
numerals of the 1st century A.D.)

Babylonian Mathematics
The Babylonian civilization replaced that of the
Sumerians from around 2000 BC. So, Babylonian
Mathematics, inherited from the Sumerians, cannot be
older than that of Sumerian mathematics. Counting in
Sumerian civilization was based on a sexagesimal
system, that is to say base 60. It was a positional
system one of the greatest achievement in the
development of the number system Babylonians used
only two symbols to produce their base 60 positional
system.

In the first millennium BC, the Greeks had no single
national standard numerals.
The first Greek number system is an acrophonic system.
The word 'Acrophonic' means that the symbols for the
numerals come from the first letter of the number name.
The system was based on the additive principle.
A second ancient Greek number system is the
alphabetical system. It is sometimes called the
'learned' system. As the name 'alphabetical'
suggests, the numerals are based on giving values
to the letters of the alphabet .

The evidence of the first use of mathematics in
the Indian subcontinent was found in the Indus
valley and dates back to at least 3000 BC.
Excavations at Mohenjodaro and Harrapa, and
the surrounding area of the Indus River, have
uncovered much evidence of the use of basic
mathematics. The maths used by this early
Harrapan civilization was very much for
practical means, and was primarily concerned
with weights, measuring scales and a
surprisingly advanced 'brick technology',
(which utilized ratios). The ratio for brick
dimensions 4:2:1 is even today considered
optimal for effective bonding

 Not only the fundamental concepts of Ganit
(Mathematics) such as those of counting numbers,
zero and infinity but also various arithmetical and
algebraic operations are being claimed to have
been present in the Hindu Granth Vedah some
6000 years ago a time when there was nothing
like Hindusthan, Hindu, Hindi and the Devanagari
script verson of Vedah. This is a total lie. If there
is anything that is worth mentioning, they are the
ones found in the excavation of Mohenjadaro and
Harrapa which did not belong to what is known
today as India. (Refer to the Brahmi numerals of
the first century A.D.)

Once the European community based their
study, research and application on the Hindu-
Arabic Number System, their contributions to
the theory and application of mathematics
grew tremendously during the latter part of
the seventeenth century.
During the same period, worldwide usage of
the Hindu-Arabic number system proved to be
a boon for both mathematics and the whole of
human society.
Progress towards the calculus continued with
Fermat, who, together with Pascal, began the

The 1800s—societal emphasis Mathematics teaching
mainly meant arithmetic and basic geometry--skills
needed for daily life. Specialized content might be learned
on the job or in special academies. There was little formal
teacher education until late in the century.
 Children in U.K. were once again enjoined to go to school,
but could leave the educational system once they could
read, write and had an elementary knowledge of
Arithmetic. It was now generally accepted that some level
of understanding of Mathematics was absolutely
necessary for modern life, and there were few schools
who did not give Mathematics a place in a student's

of Lie groups and Lie algebras. He even
extended the concept of a
characteristic representation of finite -
dimensional of semi simple Lie groups
to infinite-dimensional representations
of a case and formulated a Weyl’s
character formula analogue. Some of
his other contributions are the specific
determination of the Plancherel
measure for semisimple groups, the
evaluation of the representations of
dicrete series, based on the results of
Eisenstein series and in the concept of

 Euler worked in almost all areas of mathematics:
geometry, calculus, trigonometry, algebra,applied
mathematics, graph theory and number theory, as well
as , lunar theory, optics and other areas of physics.
 Concept of a function as we use today was introduced
by him;he was the first mathematician to write f(x) to
denote function
 He also introduced the modern notation for the
trigonometric functions, the letter e for the base of the
natural logarithm (now also known as Euler‟s number),
the Greek letter Σ for summations and the letter i to

 There aren't many subjects that Newton
didn't have a huge impact in — he was one of
the inventors of calculus, built the first
reflecting telescope and helped establish the
field of classical mechanics with his seminal
work, "Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia
Mathematica."
 He was the first to decompose white light
into its component colors and gave us the
three laws of motion, now known as Newton's
laws.
 We would live in a very different world had Sir Isaac
Newton not been born.
 Other scientists would probably have worked out
most of his ideas eventually, but there is no telling
how long it would have taken and how far behind
we might have fallen from our current technological

 Isaac Newton is a hard act to follow, but if anyone
can pull it off, it's Carl Gauss.
 If Newton is considered the greatest scientist of all
time, Gauss could easily be called the greatest
mathematician ever.
 Carl Friedrich Gauss was born to a poor family in
Germany in 1777 and quickly showed himself to be
a brilliant mathematician.
 You can find his influence throughout algebra,
statistics, geometry, optics, astronomy and many
other subjects that underlie our modern world.
 He published "Arithmetical Investigations," a
foundational textbook that laid out the tenets of
number theory (the study of whole numbers).
 Without number theory, you could kiss computers
goodbye.
 Computers operate, on a the most basic level, using
just two digits — 1 and 0, and many of the
advancements that we've made in using computers
to solve problems are solved using number theory.

 John von Neumann was born in Budapest a few
years after the start of the 20th century, a well-
timed birth for all of us, for he went on to design
the architecture underlying nearly every single
computer built on the planet today.
 Von Neumann received his Ph.D in mathematics
at the age of 22 while also earning a degree in
chemical engineering to appease his father, who
was keen on his son having a good marketable
skill.
 In 1930, he went to work at Princeton University
with Albert Einstein at the Institute of Advanced
Study.
 Right now, whatever device or computer that you are
reading this on, be it phone or computer, is cycling
through a series of basic steps billions of times over
each second; steps that allow it to do things like
render Internet articles and play videos and music,
steps that were first thought up by John von
Neumann.
 Before his death in 1957, von Neumann made
important discoveries in set theory, geometry,
quantum mechanics, game theory, statistics,
computer science and was a vital member of the
Manhattan Project.

 Alan Turing a British mathematician who has
been call the father of computer science.
 During World War II, Turing bent his brain to the
problem of breaking Nazi crypto-code and was
the one to finally unravel messages protected by
the infamous Enigma machine.
 Alan Turing's career and life ended tragically
when he was arrested and prosecuted for being
gay.
 He was found guilty and sentenced to undergo
hormone treatment to reduce his libido, losing
his security clearance as well. On June, 8, 1954,
Alan Turing was found dead of apparent
suicide by his cleaning lady.

 Alan Turing was instrumental in the development of
the modern day computer.
 His design for a so-called "Turing machine" remains
central to how computers operate today.
 The "Turing test" is an exercise in artificial
intelligence that tests how well an AI program
operates; a program passes the
 Turing test if it can have a text chat conversation
with a human and fool that person into thinking
that it too is a person.

 Mandelbrot was born in Poland in 1924 and
had to flee to France with his family in 1936
to avoid Nazi persecution.
 After studying in Paris, he moved to the U.S.
where he found a home as an IBM Fellow.
 Working at IBM meant that he had access to
cutting-edge technology, which allowed him
to apply the number-crunching abilities of
electrical computer to his projects and
problems.
 Benoit Mandelbrot died of pancreatic cancer
in 2010.
 Benoit Mandelbrot landed on this list thanks to his
discovery of fractal geometry.
 Fractals, often-fantastical and complex shapes built
on simple, self-replicable formulas, are fundamental
to computer graphics and animation.
 Without fractals, it's safe to say that we would be
decades behind where we are now in the field of
computer-generated images.
 Fractal formulas are also used to design cellphone
antennas and computer chips, which takes
advantage of the fractal's natural ability to minimize
wasted space.

 Using money is a good way of understanding
percentages. As there are 100 pence in £1,
one hundredth of £1 is therefore 1 pence,
meaning that 1 per cent of £1 is 1 pence. From
this we can calculate that 50 per cent of £1 is
50 pence. This photograph shows three British
currency notes: a £5 note, a £10 note and a
£20 note. If 50 pence is 50 per cent of £1,
then £5 is 50 per cent of £10, and so £10 is 50

 An article in the Sunday Times in June
2004 revealed the fact that you can't even
assume that buying larger bags of exactly
the same pasta would work out cheaper.
It said that in many of the supermarkets
buying in bulk, for example picking up a
six-pack of beer rather than six single
cans, was in fact more expensive.
 The newspaper found that the difference
can be as much as 30%. The supermarket
chains may be exploiting the assumption
people have that buying in bulk is
cheaper, but if you work it out quickly in
your head you'll never be caught out.

water for the tea. This someone is
most likely an engineer. Engineers
are responsible for just about
everything we take for granted in
the world around us, from tall
buildings, tunnels and football
stadiums, to access to clean
drinking water. They also design
and build vehicles, aircraft, boats
and ships. What's more, engineers
help to develop things which are
important for the future, such as
generating energy from the sun,
wind or waves. Maths is involved in
everything an engineer does,
whether it is working out how much
concrete is needed to build a
bridge, or determining the amount
of solar energy necessary to power
a car.

pyramid, the windows a
made up of tinted
squares, and the
borders of the outside
walls and windows are
made up of 3D
geometric shapes.
This is a Chevrolet SSR Roadster
Pickup. This car is built with
geometry. The wheels and lights
are circles, the doors are
rectangular prisms, the main
area for a person to drive and
sit in it a half a sphere with the
sides chopped off which makes
it 1/4 of a sphere. If a person
would look very closely the
person would see a lot more
shapes in the car. Too many to
list.
 Geometry is a part of
mathematics concerned with
questions of size, shape, and
relative position of figures
and with properties of space.
Geometry is one of the oldest
sciences
Computer-aided design,
computer-aided geometric
design. Representing shapes
in computers, and using these
descriptions to create
images, to instruct people or
machines to build the shapes,
etc. (e.g. the hood of a car,
the overlay of parts in a
building construction, even
parts of computer
animation).
Computer graphics is
based on geometry -
how images are
transformed when
viewed in various ways.
Robotics. Robotic vision,
planning how to grasp a
shape with a robot arm,
or how to move a large
shape without
collission.
Structural engineering.
What shapes are rigid
or flexible, how they
respond to forces and
stresses. Statics
(resolution of forces)
is essentially
geometry. This goes
over into all levels of
design, form, and
function of many
things.
Medical imaging - how to
reconstruct the shape of a tumor
from CAT scans, and other medical
measurements. Lots of new
geometry and other math was
(and still is being) developed for
this.
Protein modeling. Much of the
function of a protein is
determined by its shape and how
the pieces move. Mad Cow Disease
is caused by the introduction of a
'shape' into the brain (a shape
carried by a protein). Many drugs
are designed to change the shape
or motions of a protein -
something that we are just now
working to model, even
approximately, in computers,
using geometry and related areas
(combinatorics, topology).
 Physics, chemistry, biology,
 Symmetry is a central concept
of many studies in science - and
also the central concept of
modern studies of geometry.
Students struggle in university
science if they are not able to
detect symmetries of an object
(molecule in stereo chemistry,
systems of laws in physics, ... ).
the study of transformations and
related symmetries has been,
since 1870s the defining
characteristic of geometric
studies
 Music theorists often use mathematics to
understand musical structure and
communicate new ways of hearing music.
This has led to musical applications of set
theory, abstract algebra, and number
theory. Music scholars have also used
mathematics to understand musical
scales, and some composers have
incorporated the Golden ratio and
Fibonacci numbers into their work.

A globe is a good example of rotational
symmetry in a three-dimensional object. The
globe keeps its shape as it is turned on its
stand around an imaginary line between the
north and south poles. The globe shown here
dates from the late 15th or early 16th
century and is one of the earliest three-
dimensional representations of the surface of
the Earth. It can be found in the Historical
Academy in Madrid.

  • 26. A Glimpse of the History of Mathematics (5) Mathematics Education ‘Mathematics is a European invention’ Even simple arithmetical operations were not known or could not be performed in the European number system before the introduction of the Hindu-Arabic decimal system some 1000 years ago. How ridiculous is their claim of making very complicated computations during those days when they had only the primitive type of number symbols or numerals only ? (Refer to the Greek, Roman and other numerals of the 1st century A.D.)

  • 28. The Ancient World (1) Babylonian Mathematics The Babylonian civilization replaced that of the Sumerians from around 2000 BC. So, Babylonian Mathematics, inherited from the Sumerians, cannot be older than that of Sumerian mathematics. Counting in Sumerian civilization was based on a sexagesimal system, that is to say base 60. It was a positional system one of the greatest achievement in the development of the number system Babylonians used only two symbols to produce their base 60 positional system. Mathematics Education A Glimpse of the History of Mathematics (7)
  • 29. Number names, number symbols, arithmetical computations, traditional decimal notation go back to the origin of Chinese writing. The number system which was used to express this numerical information was based on the decimal system and was both additive and multiplicative in nature. The Ancient World (2) Mathematics Education A Glimpse of the History of Mathematics (8) Chinese Mathematics
  • 30. The Ancient World (3) About 3000 BC the Egyptians developed their hieroglyphic writing (picture writing) to write numerals This was a base 10 system without a zero symbol. It was not a place value system. The numerals are formed by putting together the basic symbols . The Egyptian number systems were not well suited for arithmetical calculations. Mathematics Education A Glimpse of the History of Mathematics (9) Egyptian Mathematics
  • 31. The Ancient World (4) In the first millennium BC, the Greeks had no single national standard numerals. The first Greek number system is an acrophonic system. The word 'Acrophonic' means that the symbols for the numerals come from the first letter of the number name. The system was based on the additive principle. A second ancient Greek number system is the alphabetical system. It is sometimes called the 'learned' system. As the name 'alphabetical' suggests, the numerals are based on giving values to the letters of the alphabet . Mathematics Education A Glimpse of the History of Mathematics (10) Greek Mathematics
  • 32. The evidence of the first use of mathematics in the Indian subcontinent was found in the Indus valley and dates back to at least 3000 BC. Excavations at Mohenjodaro and Harrapa, and the surrounding area of the Indus River, have uncovered much evidence of the use of basic mathematics. The maths used by this early Harrapan civilization was very much for practical means, and was primarily concerned with weights, measuring scales and a surprisingly advanced 'brick technology', (which utilized ratios). The ratio for brick dimensions 4:2:1 is even today considered optimal for effective bonding The Ancient World (5) Mathematics Education A Glimpse of the History of Mathematics (11) Hindu Mathematics (?)
  • 33.  Not only the fundamental concepts of Ganit (Mathematics) such as those of counting numbers, zero and infinity but also various arithmetical and algebraic operations are being claimed to have been present in the Hindu Granth Vedah some 6000 years ago a time when there was nothing like Hindusthan, Hindu, Hindi and the Devanagari script verson of Vedah. This is a total lie. If there is anything that is worth mentioning, they are the ones found in the excavation of Mohenjadaro and Harrapa which did not belong to what is known today as India. (Refer to the Brahmi numerals of the first century A.D.) Mathematics Education A Glimpse of the History of Mathematics (12) ‘Mathematics is a Hindu creation’
  • 34. Nepalese Mathematics (1) The Ancient World (6) Record written in Bramhi and Nepal Bhasa (Bhujimol) scripts and in the brick found while reconstructing the Dhando Stupa at Chabahil (Kathmandu) 2003 testifies that counting numbers were used in Nepal as early as 3rd century B.C. The Lichhavian numerals used in the beginning of the last millennium is both additive and multiplicative. It was decimal in nature. There exists a complete analogy between the Lichhavian number system and the 14th Century B.C. Chinese system both in form and technique of writing numbers using numerals.

  • 35. Mathematics Education A Glimpse of the History of Mathematics (20) Renaissance Mathematics(2) Once the European community based their study, research and application on the Hindu- Arabic Number System, their contributions to the theory and application of mathematics grew tremendously during the latter part of the seventeenth century. During the same period, worldwide usage of the Hindu-Arabic number system proved to be a boon for both mathematics and the whole of human society. Progress towards the calculus continued with Fermat, who, together with Pascal, began the mathematical study of probability. However the calculus was to be the topic of most significance to evolve in the 17th Century
  • 36. Mathematics Education A Glimpse of the History of Mathematics (23) 18th – 19th Centuries (3)  The 1800s—societal emphasis Mathematics teaching mainly meant arithmetic and basic geometry--skills needed for daily life. Specialized content might be learned on the job or in special academies. There was little formal teacher education until late in the century.  Children in U.K. were once again enjoined to go to school, but could leave the educational system once they could read, write and had an elementary knowledge of Arithmetic. It was now generally accepted that some level of understanding of Mathematics was absolutely necessary for modern life, and there were few schools who did not give Mathematics a place in a student's timetable of classes.
  • 37. Mathematics Education A Glimpse of the History of Mathematics (24) 18th – 19th Centuries (4)  By 1823, while Augustus De Morgan was at Cambridge, the analytical methods and notation of differential calculus made their way into the course  The 19th Century saw rapid progress. Fourier's work on heat was of fundamental importance. In geometry Plücker produced fundamental work on analytic geometry and Steiner in synthetic geometry.
  • 38. Mathematics Education A Glimpse of the History of Mathematics (25) 18th – 19th Centuries (5)  Progress towards the calculus continued with Fermat, who, together with Pascal, began the mathematical study of probability. However the calculus was to be the topic of most Non-euclidean geometry developed by Lobachevsky and Bolyai led to characterisation of geometry by Riemann. Gauss, thought by some to be the greatest mathematician of all time, studied quadratic reciprocity and integer congruences. His work in differential geometry was to revolutionise the topic. He also contributed in a major way to astronomy and magnetism.  The 19th Century saw the work of Galois on equations and his insight into the path that mathematics would follow in studying fundamental operations. Galois' introduction of the group concept was to herald in a new direction for mathematical research which has continued through the 20th Century.  Cauchy, building on the work of Lagrange on functions, began rigorous analysis and began the study of the theory of functions of a complex variable. This work would continue through Weierstrass and Riemann.
  • 39. Mathematics Education A Glimpse of the History of Mathematics (26) 18th – 19th Centuries (6)  Algebraic geometry was carried forward by Cayley whose work on matrices and linear algebra complemented that by Hamilton and Grassmann. Cantor invent set theory almost single handedly while his analysis of the concept of number added to the major work of Dedekind and Weierstrass on irrational numbers  Lie's work on differential equations led to the study of topological groups and differential topology. Maxwell was to revolutionise the application of analysis to mathematical physics. Statistical mechanics was developed by Maxwell, Boltzmann and Gibbs. It led to ergodic theory.  The study of electrostatics and potential theory. By Fredholm led to Hilbert and the development of functional analysis.

  • 58.  Euler worked in almost all areas of mathematics: geometry, calculus, trigonometry, algebra,applied mathematics, graph theory and number theory, as well as , lunar theory, optics and other areas of physics.  Concept of a function as we use today was introduced by him;he was the first mathematician to write f(x) to denote function  He also introduced the modern notation for the trigonometric functions, the letter e for the base of the natural logarithm (now also known as Euler‟s number), the Greek letter Σ for summations and the letter i to denote the imaginary unit
  • 60.  There aren't many subjects that Newton didn't have a huge impact in — he was one of the inventors of calculus, built the first reflecting telescope and helped establish the field of classical mechanics with his seminal work, "Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica."  He was the first to decompose white light into its component colors and gave us the three laws of motion, now known as Newton's laws.
  • 61.  We would live in a very different world had Sir Isaac Newton not been born.  Other scientists would probably have worked out most of his ideas eventually, but there is no telling how long it would have taken and how far behind we might have fallen from our current technological trajectory.
  • 63.  Isaac Newton is a hard act to follow, but if anyone can pull it off, it's Carl Gauss.  If Newton is considered the greatest scientist of all time, Gauss could easily be called the greatest mathematician ever.  Carl Friedrich Gauss was born to a poor family in Germany in 1777 and quickly showed himself to be a brilliant mathematician.  You can find his influence throughout algebra, statistics, geometry, optics, astronomy and many other subjects that underlie our modern world.
  • 64.  He published "Arithmetical Investigations," a foundational textbook that laid out the tenets of number theory (the study of whole numbers).  Without number theory, you could kiss computers goodbye.  Computers operate, on a the most basic level, using just two digits — 1 and 0, and many of the advancements that we've made in using computers to solve problems are solved using number theory.
  • 66.  John von Neumann was born in Budapest a few years after the start of the 20th century, a well- timed birth for all of us, for he went on to design the architecture underlying nearly every single computer built on the planet today.  Von Neumann received his Ph.D in mathematics at the age of 22 while also earning a degree in chemical engineering to appease his father, who was keen on his son having a good marketable skill.  In 1930, he went to work at Princeton University with Albert Einstein at the Institute of Advanced Study.
  • 67.  Right now, whatever device or computer that you are reading this on, be it phone or computer, is cycling through a series of basic steps billions of times over each second; steps that allow it to do things like render Internet articles and play videos and music, steps that were first thought up by John von Neumann.  Before his death in 1957, von Neumann made important discoveries in set theory, geometry, quantum mechanics, game theory, statistics, computer science and was a vital member of the Manhattan Project.
  • 69.  Alan Turing a British mathematician who has been call the father of computer science.  During World War II, Turing bent his brain to the problem of breaking Nazi crypto-code and was the one to finally unravel messages protected by the infamous Enigma machine.  Alan Turing's career and life ended tragically when he was arrested and prosecuted for being gay.  He was found guilty and sentenced to undergo hormone treatment to reduce his libido, losing his security clearance as well. On June, 8, 1954, Alan Turing was found dead of apparent suicide by his cleaning lady. 
  • 70.  Alan Turing was instrumental in the development of the modern day computer.  His design for a so-called "Turing machine" remains central to how computers operate today.  The "Turing test" is an exercise in artificial intelligence that tests how well an AI program operates; a program passes the  Turing test if it can have a text chat conversation with a human and fool that person into thinking that it too is a person.
  • 72.  Mandelbrot was born in Poland in 1924 and had to flee to France with his family in 1936 to avoid Nazi persecution.  After studying in Paris, he moved to the U.S. where he found a home as an IBM Fellow.  Working at IBM meant that he had access to cutting-edge technology, which allowed him to apply the number-crunching abilities of electrical computer to his projects and problems.  Benoit Mandelbrot died of pancreatic cancer in 2010.
  • 73.  Benoit Mandelbrot landed on this list thanks to his discovery of fractal geometry.  Fractals, often-fantastical and complex shapes built on simple, self-replicable formulas, are fundamental to computer graphics and animation.  Without fractals, it's safe to say that we would be decades behind where we are now in the field of computer-generated images.  Fractal formulas are also used to design cellphone antennas and computer chips, which takes advantage of the fractal's natural ability to minimize wasted space.

  • 81. A honeycomb is an array of hexagonal (six- sided) cells, made of wax produced by worker bees. Hexagons fit together to fill all the available space, giving a strong structure with no gaps. Squares would also fill the space, but would not give a rigid structure. Triangles would fill the space and be rigid, but it would be difficult to get honey out of their corners.
  • 83.  Using money is a good way of understanding percentages. As there are 100 pence in £1, one hundredth of £1 is therefore 1 pence, meaning that 1 per cent of £1 is 1 pence. From this we can calculate that 50 per cent of £1 is 50 pence. This photograph shows three British currency notes: a £5 note, a £10 note and a £20 note. If 50 pence is 50 per cent of £1, then £5 is 50 per cent of £10, and so £10 is 50 per cent of £20.
  • 85.  A pocket calculator is one way in which decimals are used in everyday life. The value of each digit shown is determined by its place in the entire row of numbers on the screen. In this photograph, the 7 is worth 700 (seven hundreds), the 8 is worth 80 (eight tens) and the 6 is worth 6 (six ones).
  • 89.  An article in the Sunday Times in June 2004 revealed the fact that you can't even assume that buying larger bags of exactly the same pasta would work out cheaper. It said that in many of the supermarkets buying in bulk, for example picking up a six-pack of beer rather than six single cans, was in fact more expensive.  The newspaper found that the difference can be as much as 30%. The supermarket chains may be exploiting the assumption people have that buying in bulk is cheaper, but if you work it out quickly in your head you'll never be caught out.
  • 90.  If it is rainy and cold outside, you will be happy to stay at home a while longer and have a nice hot cup of tea. But someone has built the house you are in, made sure it keeps the cold out and the warmth in, and provided you with running water for the tea. This someone is most likely an engineer. Engineers are responsible for just about everything we take for granted in the world around us, from tall buildings, tunnels and football stadiums, to access to clean drinking water. They also design and build vehicles, aircraft, boats and ships. What's more, engineers help to develop things which are important for the future, such as generating energy from the sun, wind or waves. Maths is involved in everything an engineer does, whether it is working out how much concrete is needed to build a bridge, or determining the amount of solar energy necessary to power a car.
  • 91. This a pictures with some basic geometric structures. This is a modern reconstruction of the English Wigwam. As you can there the door way is a rectangle, and the wooden panels on the side of the house are made up of planes and lines. Except for really planes can go on forever. The panels are also shaped in the shape of squares. The house itself is half a cylinder.
  • 92. This is a modern day skyscraper at MIT. The openings and windows are all made up of parallelograms. Much of them are rectangles and squares. This is a parallelogram kind of building.
  • 93. This is the Hancock Tower, in Chicago. With this image, we can show you more 3D shapes. As you can see the tower is formed by a large cube. The windows are parallelogram. The other structure is made up of a cone. There is a point at the top where all the sides meet, and There is a base for it also which makes it a cone.
  • 94. This is another building at MIT. this building is made up of cubes, squares and a sphere. The cube is the main building and the squares are the windows. The doorways are rectangle, like always. On this building There is a structure on the room that is made up of a sphere.
  • 95. This is the Pyramids, in Indianapolis. The pyramids are made up of pyramids, of course, and squares. There are also many 3D geometric shapes in these pyramids. The building itself is made up of a pyramid, the windows a made up of tinted squares, and the borders of the outside walls and windows are made up of 3D geometric shapes.
  • 96. This is a Chevrolet SSR Roadster Pickup. This car is built with geometry. The wheels and lights are circles, the doors are rectangular prisms, the main area for a person to drive and sit in it a half a sphere with the sides chopped off which makes it 1/4 of a sphere. If a person would look very closely the person would see a lot more shapes in the car. Too many to list.
  • 97.  Geometry is a part of mathematics concerned with questions of size, shape, and relative position of figures and with properties of space. Geometry is one of the oldest sciences Computer-aided design, computer-aided geometric design. Representing shapes in computers, and using these descriptions to create images, to instruct people or machines to build the shapes, etc. (e.g. the hood of a car, the overlay of parts in a building construction, even parts of computer animation).
  • 98. Computer graphics is based on geometry - how images are transformed when viewed in various ways. Robotics. Robotic vision, planning how to grasp a shape with a robot arm, or how to move a large shape without collission.
  • 99. Structural engineering. What shapes are rigid or flexible, how they respond to forces and stresses. Statics (resolution of forces) is essentially geometry. This goes over into all levels of design, form, and function of many things.
  • 100. Medical imaging - how to reconstruct the shape of a tumor from CAT scans, and other medical measurements. Lots of new geometry and other math was (and still is being) developed for this. Protein modeling. Much of the function of a protein is determined by its shape and how the pieces move. Mad Cow Disease is caused by the introduction of a 'shape' into the brain (a shape carried by a protein). Many drugs are designed to change the shape or motions of a protein - something that we are just now working to model, even approximately, in computers, using geometry and related areas (combinatorics, topology).
  • 101.  Physics, chemistry, biology,  Symmetry is a central concept of many studies in science - and also the central concept of modern studies of geometry. Students struggle in university science if they are not able to detect symmetries of an object (molecule in stereo chemistry, systems of laws in physics, ... ). the study of transformations and related symmetries has been, since 1870s the defining characteristic of geometric studies
  • 102.  Music theorists often use mathematics to understand musical structure and communicate new ways of hearing music. This has led to musical applications of set theory, abstract algebra, and number theory. Music scholars have also used mathematics to understand musical scales, and some composers have incorporated the Golden ratio and Fibonacci numbers into their work.
  • 104. A globe is a good example of rotational symmetry in a three-dimensional object. The globe keeps its shape as it is turned on its stand around an imaginary line between the north and south poles. The globe shown here dates from the late 15th or early 16th century and is one of the earliest three- dimensional representations of the surface of the Earth. It can be found in the Historical Academy in Madrid.
