Presentation transcript:

Pythagoras (Greek) Born about 530 BC. .Pythagorean theorem, golden ratio... .Led a religious cult worshipping numbers. .Vegetarians, w/o beans.

Euclid (Greek) Born about 325 BC. Wrote the book The Elements. This is pretty much our current geometry textbook! We call him the Father of Geometry.

Hypatia (Alexandria, Egypt) Born about 370 AD. First documented female mathematician. Preserved Euclid's works. Was horribly murdered…

John Napier (Scottish, 1550-1617) *Invented logarithms! *Predicted machine guns, submarines, and tanks *Believed the world would end between 1688-1700 *Tried to prove the Pope was the Antichrist *Many thought he may be mentally unbalanced...

Sir Isaak Newton (1642-1727, England) Science & Math Developed calculus in 1660’s but didn’t publish until much later Usually given more credit for developing calculus Fig Newtons… Gottfried Leibniz (1646-1716, Germany) Philosophy, literature, politics, & math Developed calculus in the 1670’s and published it right away We use Leibniz’s notations today (differentials) Choco-Leibniz cookie biscuits…

Sonya Kovalevski (1850-1891, Russian) Was equally talented in math and literature (published novels, plays, and poetry) Taught herself trig by inventing it … Teacher, loved by her students Doctorate degree at age 24. Mixed calculus and physics Lived a bit of a scandalous life, died at age 41.
