1. What is Mathematics?
Mathematics is the science that deals with the logic of shape, quantity and arrangement. Math is all around us, in
everything we do. It is the building block for everything in our daily lives, including mobile devices, architecture (ancient
and modern), art, money, engineering, and even sports.
The study of math within early civilizations was the building blocks for the math of the Greeks, who developed the
model of abstract mathematics through geometry. Greece, with its incredible architecture and complex system of
government, was the model of mathematic achievement until modern times. Greek mathematicians were divided into
several schools:
The Ionian School, founded by Thales, who is often credited for having given the first deductive proofs and
developing five basic theorems in plane geometry.
The Pythagorean School, founded by Pythagoras, who studied proportion, plane and solid geometry, and
number theory.
The Eleatic School, which included Zeno of Elea, famous for his four paradoxes.
The Sophist School, which is credited for offering higher education in the advanced Greek cities. Sophists
provided instruction on public debate using abstract reasoning.
The Platonic School, founded by Plato, who encouraged research in mathematics in a setting much like a modern
university.
The School of Eudoxus, founded by Eudoxus, who developed the theory of proportion and magnitude and
produced many theorems in plane geometry
The School of Aristotle, also known as the Lyceum, was founded by Aristotle and followed the Platonic school.

2. Who are the inventors of Mathematics?

Arithmetic
Arithmetic or arithmetics (from the Greek word αριθμός = number) is the oldest and most elementary branch of
mathematics, used by almost everyone, for tasks ranging from simple day-to-day counting to advanced science
and business calculations. It involves the study of quantity, especially as the result of combining numbers.
Geometry
Geometry (Ancient Greek: γεωμετρία; geo- "earth", -metria "measurement") "Earth-Measuring" is a part of
mathematics concerned with questions of size, shape, relative position of figures, and the properties of space.
Geometry is one of the oldest sciences. Initially a body of practical knowledge concerning lengths, areas, and
volumes, in the 3rd century BC geometry was put into an axiomatic form by Euclid, whose treatment—
Euclidean geometry—set a standard for many centuries to follow.
Trigonometry
Trigonometry (from Greek trigōnon "triangle" + metron "measure") is a branch of mathematics that studies
triangles, particularly right triangles. Trigonometry deals with relationships between the sides and the angles of
triangles and with the trigonometric functions, which describe those relationships, as well as describing angles
in general and the motion of waves such as sound and light waves.
Mensuration
The act, process, or art, of measuring.
That branch of applied geometry which gives rules for finding the length of lines, the areas of surfaces, or the
volumes of solids, from certain simple data of lines and angles.
Algebra
Algebra is the branch of mathematics concerning the study of the rules of operations and relations, and the
constructions and concepts arising from them, including terms, polynomials, equations and algebraic structures.
Together with geometry, analysis, topology, combinatorics, and number theory, algebra is one of the main
branches of pure mathematics.
Calculus
Calculus (Latin, calculus, a small stone used for counting) is a branch in mathematics focused on limits,
functions, derivatives, integrals, and infinite series. This subject constitutes a major part of modern mathematics
education. It has two major branches, differential calculus and integral calculus, which are related by the
fundamental theorem of calculus. Calculus is the study of change, in the same way that geometry is the study of
shape and algebra is the study of operations and their application to solving equations.
