About aryabhatta in in 130 words

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Aryabhatta is a renowned mathematician and astronomer of ancient India. He was born in 476 CE in Bihar. He studied at the University of Nalanda. One of his major works was Aryabhatiya written in 499 AD. The book dealt with many topics like astronomy, spherical trigonometry, arithmetic, algebra and plane trigonometry. He jotted his inventions in mathematics and astronomy in verse form. The book was translated into Latin in the 13th century. Through the translated Latin version of the Aryabhattiya, the European mathematicians learned how to calculate the areas of triangles, volumes of spheres as well as how to find out the square and cube root.

In the field of astronomy, Aryabhatta was the pioneer to infer that the Earth is spherical and it rotates on its own axis which results in day and night. He even concluded that the moon is dark and shines because of the light of sun. He gave a logical explanation to the theory of solar and lunar eclipses. He declared that eclipses are caused due to the shadows cast by the earth and the moon. Aryabhatta proposed the geocentric model of the solar system which states that the Earth is in the center of the universe and also laid the foundation for the concept of Gravitation. His propounded methods of astronomical calculations in his Aryabhatta-Siddhatha which was used to make the the Panchanga (Hindu calendar). What Copernicus and Galileo propounded was suggested by Aryabhatta nearly 1500 years ago.

Answer 2

Aryabhatta is a first Indian Mathematician-astronomer. Due to his major and helpful inventions, he is also known as Physicist. One of his major discovery is the "discovery of pi value". The π (pi) which we generally use for doing mathematical calculation. The value of pi which we have accepted is 62832/20000 = 3.1416. This value was found by Aryabhatta.

He is one of the greatest Astronomer and  Mathematician of India. The first  unmanned Indian mission was named as "Aryabhatta" in the memory of Aryabhatta. Aryabhatta is to be said from the Indian state Kerala. He had done a lot of inventions and discoveries which has really helpful to the world a lot.
