The life of Pythagoras Pythagoras was a philosopher and a mathematician. He developed mathematics, astronomy, and music. His greatest theorem is the Pythagorean theorem. He was a Greek mathematician who wrote books on philosophy and math. During the Greek era, religion and science was not separated from state and education. Therefore, this created chaos since half of the population did not believe Pythagoras on the Pythagorean theorem.

Mnesarchus was the father of Pythagoras who was a merchant from Tire. Mnesarchus became a citizen of Samos by bringing corn to Samon during a shortage on food. He then married Pythais who was from Samos and gave birth to Pythagoras. Pythagoras travel with his parents thought out Greece. Pythagoras played the lyre and recited the poems of Homer. Pherekydes was the teacher of Pythagoras who introduces him to mathematics. Two other philosophers Thales and Anaximander from Miletus influence Pythagoras to continue his work with mathematics

Pythagoras was between the age of 18 to 20 years old when he met Thales and Anaximander. Anaximander was about Pythagoras age and Thales was old. However, Thales was Pythagoras mentor who encourage him to continue his education in Egypt on astronomy and mathematics. Anaximander influences Pythagoras to invent the Pythagorean theorem since he was interested in geometry and cosmology.

Porphyry from Egypt influences Pythagoras to practice the Egypt customs in Italy. Pythagoras refused to eat beans in Italy since Porphyry refuses to eat beans as well. Porphyry claims that Pythagoras invented the Pythagorean theorem with the help of Egyptians. Pythagoras leaves Porphyry when the King of Persia Cambyses II invades Egypt in 525 BC. Pythagoras was a prisoner in Babylon since he was a prisoner of war. Cambyses II dies and Pythagoras is release. Pythagoras then visits the school Croton in Italy. He was teaching mathematics in the school of Croton.

He joined the politics of the school of Croton and invented mathematics. Pythagoras founded the Pythagorean Society of Croton for mathematics and astronomy. The society allowed members from both genders males and females. Pythagoras then proves the Pythagorean theorem. However, he did not introduce the Pythagorean theorem. It was first introduced by Babylonian 1000 years earlier. Pythagoras just proved that the theorem was right. Pythagoras then leaves Croton to nurse Pherekydes in Delos.

The life of Pythagoras Pherekydes then dies a few months later. Cylon who was a noble from Croton attacked the Pythagorean Society at Croton. Pythagoras escapes Cylon to Metapontium and he dies there. However, many authors claimed that he committed suicide because of the attack of Cylon and the death of Pherekydes.

Plato appreciated the work of Pythagoras. He studied from the books of Pythagoras. “Plato ( ) is said to have paid the equivalent of 100 pounds of silver for Pythagoras book as soon as it was available. Plato rewrote Pythagorean theorem to make it easier to understand. After the dead of Plato many students at the school of Athens review the Theory of Pythagoras. Figure demonstrates a painting of the school of Athens. Plato and Aristotle are in the center of the painting and Pythagoras is right below them in the center. Raphael Sanzio painted the painting during the 16 hundreds.

Pythagoras theorem Pythagoras studied even numbers, odd numbers, triangle numbers, and perfect numbers to prove the Pythagorean theorem. Thus, it is very important to study the basics of math in order to prove mathematics. He tried to prove the equation of Gauss and failed. However, he found out that “ten was an important number since it contained in itself the first four integers- one, two, three, and four [ =10] and these is written in dot notation formed a perfect triangle.” Thus, Pythagoras gave birth to the equation of Gausses.

The Pythagorean Theorem says that if and only if we have a right-angled triangle then the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares sides. Pythagoras explains the Pythagorean Theorem by demonstrating a right triangle. He labels the hypotenuse as C and the sides as A and B. Side A is the shorts length of the triangle and side B is the largest length of the right triangle. Therefore, the formula for the Pythagorean theorem is C2 = A2 + B2
