Who discovered parabola?
The concept of the parabola dates back to ancient Greece, with significant contributions from mathematicians such as Apollonius of Perga, who systematically studied conic sections around 200 BCE. However, the term "parabola" itself is derived from the Greek word "parabole," meaning "to place beside," which was used by Apollonius to describe the curve's geometric properties. Later developments in the study of parabolas were made by mathematicians throughout history, including those in the Islamic Golden Age and the Renaissance.
Who discovered the equation for conic circles?
The equation for conic sections, including circles, was developed by ancient Greek mathematicians, particularly Apollonius of Perga, in the 3rd century BCE. He is often credited with formalizing the study of conics in his work "Conics." However, the general equation of a circle ( (x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2 ) is derived from the definition of a circle as the set of points equidistant from a center point ((h, k)).
When was analytic geometry invented?
Although Descartes is generally credited with inventing analytical geometry, several aspects had been used by the Greek mathematicians Menaechmus (4th century BC) and Apollonius of Perga (3rd century BC). Much later (11th century), the Persian mathematician Omar Khayyam, used methods which modern mathematicians consider akin to analytical geometry. In 1637 Rene Descartes published his work on the topic but it was incomplete and was in French. It took another decade or so before it was translated into Latin and some of the gaps filled that Descartes' ideas took off.
