Every circle in the world contains π. What do you think of when you think of π? Like the pies we eat, everything round has something to do with the number π.
Take a look around, and you'll see that we live in a world full of rectangles with 90 degree right angles. Let's take this chance to explore the hidden meaning of the right angle.
4. The Secret of the Right Triangle and the Pythagorean Theorem Part II
This is the mathematical story about the Pythagorean Theory in modern times. If a building is on fire and the fire truck's ladder needs to reach the top floor, how do we know which ladder to use?
In ancient times, seeding and harvest time were determined according to the movement of the stars. For this reason, it was of the utmost importance that people studied the sky. These studies led to the discovery of the Trigonometric Ratio; a key to understanding right triangles.
9. Finding the Centers of Circles Inscribed or Circumscribed with Triangles
There's a treasure map that says the treasure lies buried at a spot equidistant from points A, B, and C. If you were on this island, how would find the treasure? The answer involves finding the circumcenter of a triangle.
Our world is vast and space is virtually unending. Yet, there's another endless world, one of numbers. Venture into the vast world of real numbers, where rational and irrational numbers come together.
