Theano’s Contributions to Math First mathematics teacher Most important work was the golden mean An irrational number which is evident in nature. (~1.618)

Hypatia Born in Alexandria, Egypt around 370AD Killed by Christian monks in 415AD Her father was Theon, an educated mathematician and astronomer in Alexandria.

Hypatia’s Contributions to Math First notable woman in mathematics Edited Conics of Apollonius Wrote The Astronomical Canon Esteemed teacher

Maria Agnesi DOB: May 16, 1718 DOD: Jan 9,1799 Her father was Pietro Agnesi Professor of math at University of Bologna

Ada Lovelace DOB Dec. 10, 1815 DOD Nov. 27 1852 Was brought up by her father, Lord Byron, who was a mathematician and scientist He wanted her to study mathematics

Lovelace’s Contribution's to Mathematics She attempted to incorporate mathematics into technology Created a program to compute Bernoulli numbers

Charlotte Angas Scott DOB: 1848 DOD: 1931 Mathematician and Educator Her family supported her further education in college, studying mathematics

Scott’s Contributions Became the first head of the math department at Bryn Mawr College Her worked formed the College Entrance Examination (now known as the math section of the SAT’s)

Winifred Edgerton DOB: Sep. 24, 1862 DOD: Sep. 6, 1951 Grew up being taught by private tutors Went on to study mathematics in college

Edgerton’s Contributions to Mathematics Received a Masters, then was the first woman to receive a PhD in mathematics Wrote an original thesis titled "Multiple Integrals" that dealt with geometric interpretations of multiple integrals and translations and relations of various systems of coordinates.

Euphemia Lofton Haynes DOB: 1890 DOD: 1980 Born in Washington, D.C. Mathematics major in college

Hayne’s Contributions to Mathematics First African American women to earn a PhD in math Established a mathematics dept. at Miners Teacher's College

Math Statistics between Woman and Men (Back Then) Women weren’t given as much credit as men They weren't given the opportunity as much as men either Because women were suppose to be homemakers They also weren't expected to know as much as men, but that change drastically

Math Statistics between Woman and Men (Today) Women are much more credited today than back then Today, women are winning noble peace prizes for their research and findings Grade wise-Woman and Men are equal math education Women and Mathematics have come a long way since 546 BC

Life is an unfoldment, and the further we travel the more truth we can comprehend. To understand things that are at our door is the best preparation for understanding those that lie beyond. -Hypatia

THE END!
