No, his mathematical knowledge did not extend to trigonometry and he could deal with only simple algebra. However, his work was intuitively mathematical. James Maxwell, who used Faraday's work to formulate his equations which form the basis for modern electromagnetic phenomena, wrote that he considered Faraday "to have been in reality a mathematician of a very high order – one from whom the mathematicians of the future may derive valuable and fertile methods."

Yes, Michael Faraday did study mathematics, but he was largely self-taught in the subject. He used his mathematical skills to help him in his scientific research and experiments, particularly in the field of electromagnetism.

He didn't study math because he thought it was crazy.then he said,"I will study science to become a scientist."

Unless a person specifically says that he is a member of the Freemasons, it is difficult to say one way or another whether he is.
