Where do numbers come from?
Number come from the amount of angles. As in 1 (this number doesn't show it very well because of the additional line at the bottom) there is 1 angle in the number 1. There are 2 angles in the number 2. Three angles in the number 3, and so forth. It gets a little tricky at 7 because there is supposed to be a line in the middle and a line at the bottom. And of course 0 has no angles.
How numbers got their shape?
The Arabic numbers, which is what are numbers are based on for the English language and are very similar to, use to have no curves or curved angles in them and had all acute, obtuse, or right angles. According to what number it was (for example 3) had three angles. Another example is 4, which still has four angles today.
True or false Corresponding angles are congruent?
yes
Same side exterior angles?
numbers on the out side of to parallel lines and on the same as traversal.
Why do numbers look like they do?
The number system, what we use today (1,2,3,4,5…) is called Arabic Numbers System. We also have Roman Numbers System (I, II, III, IV, V, …) which is rarely being used.Have you ever thought WHY One is 1, Two is 2, Three is 3 … and so on?It is all because of Angles. Yes, it is the number of angles in each letter.The number of angles gives meaning to each letters.Number 1 has one angleNumber 2 has two anglesNumber 3 has three angles….and so on.Observe the letter Zero. It has no angles.The following link has an image of ancient Arabic numbers. All the angles that are formed in these letters are mentioned by the letter o.http://www.vijayforvictory.com/general/logic-behind-arabic-numbers/1297/
