4. EUDOXUS (408 BC-355 BC)
( Greek mathematician)
- contributions to the early theory of proportions (equal ratios) forms the basis for the general account of proportions found in Book V of Euclid's Elements .
- contributed a solution to the problem of doubling the cube. that is, the construction of a cube with twice the volume of a given cube
- Eudoxus's proof of the latter began by assuming that the cone and cylinder are commensurable, before reducing the case of the cone and cylinder being incommensurable to the commensurable case.
- proved that the areas of circles are proportional to the squares of their diameters.
5. EUCLIDES (408 BC-355 BC)
( Greek mathematician)
- He is “ Geometry Father”
- A writer of “ The Elements ” , it contains 13 books :
I. Geometry bases
II. Geometry algebraic
III. Circle theories
IV. Make lines and curves
V. Abstract proportion theory
VI. Proportion geometry
VII. Numeral theory bases
VIII. Numeral theory proportion
IX. Numeral theory
X. Classification
XI. Three dimension of geometry
XII. Measuring of shapes
XIII. Three dimension shapes
- The Euclidean corpus falls into two groups: elementary geometry and general mathematics.
6. ARISTOTELES ( 384 - 322 BC)
( Greek mathematician)
- Aristotle's writings show that even he realized that there is more to logic than syllogistic.
- Aristotle's claim to be the founder of logic rests primarily on the Categories, the De interpretatione, and the Prior Analytics, which deal respectively with words, propositions, and syllogisms
7. ARCHIMEDES (287 BC-212 BC)
( Greek mathematician)
- discovering of the relation between the surface and volume of a sphere and its circumscribing cyclinder. The surface area of a sphere is 4πr2 and the surface area of the circumscribing cylinder is 6πr2
- have three masterpiece which studying area flat geometry measurement of circle, kuadratur of and spiral parabola.
- contribution was rather to extend these concepts to conic sections.
- Earlier using big calculating method
8. APOLLONIUS (260 BC-200 BC)
( Greek mathematician)
- known by his contemporaries as “the Great Geometer,” whose treatise Conics is one of the greatest scientific works from the ancient world.
- inspired much of the advancement of geometry in the Islamic world in medieval times, and the rediscovery of his Conics in Renaissance Europe formed a good part of the mathematical basis for the scientific revolution.
- defining terms like parabola, elliptical, and hyperbola.
- Giving instruction concerning enumeration technique quickly.
9. DIOPHANTUS (200BC- 250BC)
( Greek mathematician)
- large and extremely influential treatise upon which all the ancient and modern fame of Diophantus reposes, is his Arithmetica.
- the first known work to employ algebra in a modern style
- inspiring the rebirth of number theory.
- Finding equation of quadrate which has two roots
10. MUHAMAD IBN Mūsā AL-Khwārizmī (780 C-850 C)
(Irak mathematician)
- He is “ Father Algebra”
- working on elementary algebra, al-Kitāb al-mukhtaṣar fī ḥisāb al-jabr waʾl-muqābala was translated into Latin in the 12th century, from which the title and term Algebra derives.
- working by al-Khwārizmī introduced Hindu-Arabic numerals (see numerals and numeral systems) and their arithmetic to the West.
- Compiling a set of astronomical tables (Zīj), based on a variety of Hindu and Greek sources. This work included a table of sines, evidently for a circle of radius 150 units
11. RENE DESCARTES (1596-1650 C)
(French mathematician)
- the first to abandon scholastic Aristotelianism.
- Expressing in the dictum “I think, therefore I am” (best known in its Latin formulation, “Cogito, ergo sum,” though originally written in French, “Je pense, donc je suis”).
- developing a metaphysical dualism.
- investigating reports of esoteric knowledge
- Inventing analytic geometry, a method of solving geometric problems algebraically and algebraic problems geometrically
12. PIERRE DE FERMAT (1601-1665 C)
(French mathematician)
- the founder of the modern theory of numbers.
- Discovering the fundamental principle of analytic geometry
- finding tangents to curves and their maximum and minimum points led him to be regarded as the inventor of the differential calculus.
- co-founder of the theory of probability.
- Solving the related problem of finding the surface area of a segment of a paraboloid of revolutio
13. ISAAC NEWTON (1642-1727 C)
(English mathematician)
- he was the original discoverer of the infinitesimal calculus
- A writer of Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica (Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy)
14. LEONHARD EULER (1707-1783 C)
(Swiss mathematician)
- The founders of pure mathematics
- The made decisive and formative contributions to the subjects of geometry, calculus, mechanics, and number theory
- Developing methods for solving problems in observational astronomy and demonstrated useful applications of mathematics in technology and public affairs.
- carried integral calculus to a higher degree of perfection, developed the theory of trigonometric and logarithmic functions, reduced analytical operations to a greater simplicity, and threw new light on nearly all parts of pure mathematics
- developing the concept of function in mathematical analysis
15. CARL FRIEDRICH GAUSS (1777-1855 C)
( German mathematician)
- contributing to number theory, geometry, probability theory, geodesy, planetary astronomy, the theory of functions, and potential theory (including electromagnetism)
- discovering a regular polygon of 17 sides can be constructed by ruler and compass alone.
- publishing works on number theory, the mathematical theory of map construction, and many other subjects.
16. AUGUSTUS DE MORGAN (1806-1871 C)
(English mathematician)
- Contributing to the study of logic include the formulation of De Morgan's laws
- Developing of the theory of relations and the rise of modern symbolic, or mathematical, logic
- recognizing the purely symbolic nature of algebra, and he was aware of the possibility of algebras that differ from ordinary algebra
17. GEORGE CANTOR (1845-1918 C)
(German historian of mathematics)
- A writer of “Mathematische Beiträge zum Kulturleben der Völker “(1863; “Mathematical Contributions to the Cultural Life of the People”)
- Considering one of the finest published histories of mathematics
