Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
ARYABHATA(476—550AD) :-
(1) Aryabhatta was born in 476 A.D. Kusumpur, India.He was the first in the line of great
mathematicians from the classical age of Indian Mathematics and Astronomy.
(2) His famous work are the” Aryabhatiya “and the”Arya‐siddhanta”.The Mathematical
part of the Aryabhatiya covers arithmetic. algebra, plane and spherical trigonometry.The
Arya‐siddhanta, a lot work on astronomical computation.
(3) Approximation of Pi: Aryabhata work on the approximation for pi (π) and may have
come to the conclusion that π is an irrational number.In the 2nd part of Aryabhatiya, he
writes the ratio of circumference to diameter is 3.1416.
(4) Aryabhata given the formula for area of a triangle .He also discussed the concept of
sine in his work by the name of ardhajya. If we use Aryabhata’s table & calculate the
value of sin300 which is 1719/3438=0.5.,the value is correct. His alphabetic code is
commonly known as the Aryabhata cipher.
(5) He was first person to say that Earth is spherical and it revolves around the sun.
(6) He gave the formula (a+b)2 =a2 + b2 + 2ab.
(7) He taught the method of solving the following problems:
1+2+3+…………+n = n(n+1)/2
12 + 22 + 32 +………+ n2 = n(n+1)(2n+1)/6
13 + 23 + 33 +…………..+ n3 = (n(n+1)/2)2
Answer:
. In the classical period of Indian mathematics (400 CE to 1200 CE), important contributions were made by scholars like Aryabhata, Brahmagupta, Bhaskara II, and Varāhamihira. The decimal number system in use today[3] was first recorded in Indian mathematics.
