History of Mathematics in Greece By: Kimberly Cramer

Greek Alphabet

Ancient Greek Numbering System

Heron of Alexandria  Famous Geometer  Worked in Mechanics  Many different famous equations and theories famous equations and theories famous equations and theories

Apollonius  “The Great Geometer”  His famous book Conics introduced terms such as parabola, ellipse, and hyperbola.  Postulated that the planets revolved around the Sun and the Sun revolves around the Earth. The End

Heron’s Famous Attributions to Mathematics if A is the area of a triangle with sides a, b and c, and then The mechanicians of Heron's school say that mechanics can be divided into a theoretical and a manual part; the theoretical part is composed of geometry, arithmetic, astronomy and physics, the manual of work in metals, architecture, carpentering and painting and anything involving skill with the hands.
