Did anyone oppose to the pythgreom theorm?
Although the Pythagorean theorem (sums of square of a right angled triangle) is called a theorem it has many mathematical proofs (including the recent proof of Fermats last theorem which tangentially also prooves Pythagorean theorem). In fact Pythagorean theorem is an 'axiom', a kind of 'super law'. It doesn't matter if anyone does oppose it, it is one of the few fundamental truths of the universe.
How do the Greeks use prime numbers?
The Greeks used prime numbers in various mathematical and philosophical contexts. They recognized prime numbers as the building blocks of all positive integers and attributed them with mystical and divine qualities. For example, Euclid's "Elements" emphasized the role of primes in proving the fundamental theorem of arithmetic and establishing the unique factorization of numbers. The Greeks also associated primes with perfection and beauty, viewing them as a reflection of the order and harmony found in the universe.
Who invented collinear points?
It is meaningless to ask who "invented" collinear points, as they are simply accepted as an intuitive concept by the earliest mathematicians. The concept of a straight line passing through two points is postulated by Euclid of Alexandria in the beginning of his Elements, written about 300 B.C., but Euclid's books are, to a large extent, a compilation of the work of earlier mathematicians, so the concept obviously does not originate with Euclid. In particular, many of the proofs in books I and II of Euclid's Elements can be attributed to Pythagoras of Samos, so the concepts probably go back to before 500 B.C. The notion of a line and the points upon it are intuitive to human understanding; rope can be thought of as a physical analogue to an abstract line, making the concept immediately familiar to anyone. Euclid and Pythagoras probably felt no need to formally define the concept of a line, as the analogy was obvious. There is evidence that humans have been making cords and rope for over 28,000 years.
What is 160 miles in feet?
How many feet are in a mile? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller? Feris Bueller? 5280 Now class, how do you find the number of feet in any given number of miles? anyone? anyone? You multiply the number of miles by 5280. Class, how many miles are we talking about? Anyone? 160. Okay, what is the equation? Anyone? Bueller? Anyone?? It's 160 x 5280. Does anyone know what the answer to that problem is? Anyone? Anyone? It's 844800 feet.
What is the problem when instead of saying yes or no someone says it 3 or 4 times?
I do not see why anyone should have a problem with that.I do not see why anyone should have a problem with that.I do not see why anyone should have a problem with that.I do not see why anyone should have a problem with that.
