Extractions: Development of Cometary Thought PART - I Subodh Mahanti Lucius Annaeus Seneca (4B.C.-A.D.65) in Natural Questions ... In thick smoke of human sins, rising every day, every hour, every moment full of stench and horror, before the face of God and becoming gradually so thick as to form a comet, with curled and plaited tresses, which at last is kindled by hot and fiery anger of the supreme Heavenly Judge. Andreas Celichius in The Theologial Reminder of the New Comet (1578) Donald K.Yeomans in Comets : A Chronological History of observations, Science, Myth and Folklore (1991). The development of the scientific understanding about comets has a long and intriguing history. For centuries people (common people and scientists alike) have pondered the appearance of these mysterious apparitions. People's fascination for them, as seneca pointed out, was because they were unusual strange phenomena. They appear rarely. Before the seventeenth century comets were not considered as celestial bodies but as signals at a sinful Earth from God. celichius as quoted above was no doubt expressing the majority view of the comet prevalent in the 16th century. of course, there were opponents, though their number were few. for example Andreas Dudith (1533-89), the Hungarian scholar, countered celichius views by stating that if comets were caused by the sins of the mortals then they would never be absent from the sky.

Kwadratuur Van Een Cirkel In de tijd van hippocrates van chios herleefde de hoop op de mogelijkheidde cirkel te kunnen kwadreren. hippocrates was er nl. http://www.math.rug.nl/didactiek/hippocrates/kwadratuur.htm
Extractions: Kwadratuur van een cirkel De maantjes van Hippocrates De Griekse wiskundigen legden zichzelf de eis op om bij meetkundige constructies alleen gebruik te maken van een passer en een liniaal. Deze liniaal mag dan alleen een rechte lat zijn zonder deelstreepjes, de lengte doet er niet toe. Zie spelregels. Algemeen bekend zijn bijvoorbeeld de volgende constructies: Het midden van een gegeven lijnstuk, het halveren van een gegeven hoek, een regelmatige zeshoek. Er blijken ook meetkundige objecten te zijn die niet te construeren zijn, bijvoorbeeld een regelmatige 7-hoek, of trisectie van een hoek. We beperken ons tot kwadratuurproblemen. Bij dit soort problemen is het steeds de bedoeling om bij een gegeven figuur een vierkant (ook wel kwadraat genoemd) te construeren, dat dezelfde oppervlakte heeft. Als dat lukt zeggen we dat die figuur is gekwadreerd. Het werkwoord is kwadreren en niet kwadrateren.

Euclid's Elements, Book I, Proposition 3 According to Proclus (410485 CE) in his Commentary on Book I, Hippocratesof chios (fl. ca. 430 BCE) was the first to write an Elements. http://aleph0.clarku.edu/~djoyce/java/elements/bookI/propI3.html
Extractions: Proposition 3 To cut off from the greater of two given unequal straight lines a straight line equal to the less. Let AB and C be the two given unequal straight lines, and let AB be the greater of them. It is required to cut off from AB the greater a straight line equal to C the less. Place AD at the point A equal to the straight line C, and describe the circle DEF with center A and radius AD. I.2 Post. 3 Now, since the point A is the center of the circle DEF, therefore AE equals AD. I.Def.15 But C also equals AD, therefore each of the straight lines AE and C equals AD, so that AE also equals C. C.N.1 Therefore, given the two straight lines AB and C, AE has been cut off from AB the greater equal to C the less. Q.E.F. Now it is clear that the purpose of Proposition 2 is to effect the construction in this proposition. According to Proclus (410-485 C.E.) in his Commentary on Book I, Hippocrates of Chios (fl. ca. 430 B.C.E.) was the first to write an Elements. Leon and Theudius also wrote versions before Euclid (fl. ca. 295 B.C.E.). These other Elements have all been lost since Euclid's replaced them. It is conceivable that in some of these earlier versions the construction in proposition I.2 was not known, so this proposition would instead have been a postulate (a stronger version of

Extractions: During the 4th century B.C., Greek geometry burst its bonds and went on to the tremendous discoveries of the "age of giants." And Greek culture, too, burst from the mainland of Hellas and spread to most of the eastern Mediterranean. Both developments were connected with the romantic figure of Alexander the Great. After Plato's time, teachers and alumni from the Academy had gone on to found schools of their own. In particular, Plato's most famous associate, the great philosopher Aristotle, had set up the Lyceum in Athens, and started the systematic classification of human knowledge. And Aristotle's most renowned pupil was the warrior king Alexander of Macedon, who tried to conquer the world. In thirteen years, Alexander extended his rule over Greece proper, and Ionia, Phoenicia, Egypt, and the vast Persian domains as far as India. Then he died, and his empire broke up. But throughout those far-flung lands, he had founded Greek cities and planted the seeds of Greek civilization-the Greek language, Greek art, and, of course, Greek mathematics. Mathematicians traveled with his armies. And there is even a

Extractions: Connecting Geometry Chapter 3 Theorems in Geometry In our study of geometry, we will be deal with many geometric figures such as triangles and circles, and we will be concerned mostly with their properties. A property of a geometric figure is some interesting or important thing that is true about the figure. For example, a property of a triangle is that it has 3 sides; this property comes from the definition of a triangle. But once we define "triangle", we might notice that it has other properties. For example, in GSP activity 1.1, you probably noticed that when you drag a vertex of the triangle, the lengths of the sides change. I hope you noticed that the measures of the angles change also. Do you think there is a relationship between the lengths of the sides and the sizes of the angles? If so, this would be an important property of triangles! In the diagram below, notice the measures of the sides and angles. What appears to be true about the relationship between the side and angle measures? If you said that the sides of the first triangle are all equal and the angles are all equal also, but in the second triangle the sides are unequal and the angles are unequal, then this is a good answer! Other answers are, of course, possible.
