Description
A squared plus b squared equals c squared. It sounds simple, doesn't it? Yet this familiar expression is a gateway into the riotous garden of mathematics, and sends us on a journey of exploration in the company of two inspired guides, who trace the life of the Pythagorean theorem from ancient Babylon to the present, visiting along the way Leonardo da Vinci, Albert Einstein, President James Garfield, and the Freemasons--not to mention the elusive Pythagoras...
Description
Uses computer-rendered models to illustrate five essential topics in mathematics. These include how the Golden Ratio is calculated and applied, the ratio of similitude and how it relates to the Pythagorean Theorem and fractals, defining pi, Hippocratic crescents, and cylindrical and conic sections--container.
Description
In this video we'll learn how to use the pythagorean theorem, which is a theorem that applies only to right-triangles (triangles that include a 90-degree angle).
