Chооse оne question аnd write your аnswer in the text book provided Pleаse note; A "yes or no" for some of the sub-questions is not enough, of course.

Where and when did the school originate? What do the Pythagorean mean by “all is numbers”? Define "incommensurable quantities" and how their discovery affected the belief of the Pythagorean. Prove that the diagonal of the square is incommensurable with its side. 2. Where and when did Ptolemy live? Did he believe that the sun was at the center of the universe? Was his work on the orbits of the planets well regarded and studied after his death? How did Ptolemy measure the chords and the angles on a circle? How does his approach differ from that in modern trigonometry? Compare Ptolemy's circle and chords with the trigonometric circle and the functions sine and cosine that we use nowadays, using pictures to make your point. 3.
