Question

Short note on Pythagoras only in 100 words

Answer 1

Pythagoras of Samos was a famous Greek mathematician and philosopher (c. 570 – c. 495 BC). He is known best for the proof of the important Pythagorean theorem, which is about right angle triangles. He started a group of mathematicians, called the Pythagoreans, who worshiped numbers and lived like monks. He had an influence on Plato.

He had a great impact on mathematics, theory of music and astronomy. His theories are still used in mathematics today. He was one of the greatest thinkers of his time.

Pythagoras was born in Samos, a little island off the western coast of Asia Minor. There is not much information about his life. He was said to have had a good childhood. Growing up with two or three brothers, he was well educated. He did not agree with the government and their schooling, so he moved to Croton and set up his own cult (little society) of followers under his rule. His followers did not have any personal possessions, and they were all vegetarians. Pythagoras taught them all, and they had to obey strict rules.

Some say he was the first person to use the term philosophy. Since he worked very closely with his group, the Pythagoreans, it is sometimes hard to tell his works from those of his followers.

Religion was important to the Pythagoreans. They swore their oaths by "1+2+3+4" (which equals 10). They also believed the soul is immortal and goes through a cycle of rebirths until it can become pure. They believed that these souls were in both animal and plant life.

Answer 2

Pythagoras

Introduction:

Pythagoras was a Greek philosopher who made significant contributions to mathematics. He was born in the year 560 B.C. and died in the year 480 B.C.

Life and Education:

• He was originally from the city of Samos in Ionia (later Italy), but he went away to escape Polycrates' tyranny. Ionia was a region in the Mediterranean Sea, and Samos was a small island inside it.
• He relocated to Croton after leaving Samos. He founded a school in Croton. It was a philosophical and religious institution.
• Because this school was famed for its secrecy, few records have survived and little is known about it.

Contribution in mathematics:

• Pythagoreans were students at Pythagoras' school. Everything, according to the Pythagoreans, could be reduced to numbers.
• They claimed that everything is made out of numbers.
• The Pythagoreans were interested in triangles with the proportions 3:4:5. They noticed that all of the triangles in the 3:4:5 ratio are right triangles.
• Pythagoreans developed the Pythagorean Theorem using that triangle.

Pythagorean Theorem:

• He claimed that the hypotenuse's square is equal to the squares of the other two sides. The hypotenuse of the 3:4:5 triangle is 5. The legs are 3 and 4.
• A right angle is the angle formed by the hypotenuse and the hypotenuse's opposite. Because the hypotenuse equals the sum of the two legs.
