History of Mathematics based on figures

1. Thales (624-550 BC)
  • May be called the first mathematician who formulated the theorem or proposition, where tradition has become more clear after translated by Euclid. The foundation of mathematics as an applied science must have been placed by Thales before appearing Pythagoras who make numbers.
2. Pythagoras (582-496 BC)
  • Pythagoras was the man who first sparked the axioms, postulates-postulates that need to be translated first pitch in the developed geometry. Pythagoras was not a finding of a theorem of Pythagoras, but he managed to create mathematical proofs. Pythagorean Brotherhood discovered  2 as irrational numbers.
3. Socrates (427-347 BC)
  • He is a great philosophy from the Greeks. He also became the creator of all-purpose doctrine, because it was philosophy called idealism. His teachings were born because of interaction with the sophists. Plato is thought to carry away the first expert who received not understand the nature of things.
4. Ecluides (325-265 BC)
  • Euclid called the "Father of Geometry" because menemuka number theory and geometry.Subjects covered are the forms, Pythagorean theorem, equations in algebra, circle, tangent, the geometry of space, the theory of proportion and others. Eukluides discovery tools such as slide rules and terms.
5. Archimedes (287-212 BC)
  • He applied the principles of physics and mathematics. And also find the calculation of π (pi) in calculating the size of the circle. He was the greatest mathematician of all time and in ancient times. Three kaaarya Archimedes discusses plane geometry, namely the measurement loop, the quadrature of parabola and spirals.
6. Appolonius (262-190 BC)
  • His concept of parabola, hyperbola, and ellipse many contribute to modern astronomy. He is a mathematician pliers expert in geometry. Theorem Appolonius linking some elements in the triangle.
7. Diophantus (250-200 BC)
  • He is the "Father of Algebra" for the Babylonian who developed the concepts of Babylonian algebra. A Greek mathematician who lived in Alexandria. Great works of Diophantus of arithmetic book, the book's first essay on algebra system. Preserved part of solving arithmetic Diophantus contains approximately 130 questions that generate first-degree equations.
