To start off the name of my mathematician is none other the great Aristotle. Aristotle was born in 384 BC in Stagira, Greece. He passed away in 322 BC in Chalcis, Greece. Aristotle’s education was at a university known as Platonic academy where he met his first and famous mentor Plato. Aristotle believe it or not had a lot of mentors to help him throughout his life one is Plato, another being Socrates and he even knew the infamous Alexander the Great. As his life began to progress he ended up taking their spot in the next generation of new and amazing modern science and astronomy. Did you know Aristotle did not believe in the atomic theory? He actually believed that all things on the earth at the time were made of only 4 elements that included …show more content…

And as he and Plato’s son took over the academy they started to add more algebra and Pythagorean Theorem to their work and research and Aristotle was later on known as “The Philosopher” of the generation of philosophers. They actually impacted society in a big way to be exact because without these guys we would not know what algebra and Pre-Calculus are today. These guys spread the teaching to people and for future generations to spread, and this has been taught all across the world since the BCS! The discovery of the math they taught actually helps us with equations such as dividing rations or portions of stuff that needs to be separated. For example the coordinate plane. Aristotle actually used it to label his markings of the stars more frequently and he arranged them every day of his life that he got to and he plotted every one of the equations on his famous theory the Aristotle law. This discovery along the road has been improved greatly by other great scientists that are wizards when it comes to math, they have evolved in the science world that most people around the world did not know could happen. For example, Pythagorean Theorem was a big help for most people across the world because it impacted people to make the problem they needed to fix much easier that how the used to do it. Probably one of the most genius
