Yale-New Haven Teachers Institute Home A Chronological History of ¹ with Developmental Activities in Problem Solving by Anthony P. Solli Contents of Curriculum Unit 80.07.11: Introduction Prerequisites Level Part I: Chronological History ... To Guide Entry Introduction : The unit begins with a historical development of ¹ and proceeds with examples of activities to help students develop a deeper appreciation of the mathematical beauty and values of ¹. Prerequisites : Students should have at least a working knowledge of fractions and decimals, plus an intuitive understanding of the nomenclature, terminology, vocabulary, and formulae of basic geometry. Level: The historical part of this unit may be used in any grade level, preferably middle school. The activities part could be used in any middle school level, although it is recommended for average and above average groups working in small groups or independently. It also may be used as a motivational or summary part of a geometry unit or pre algebra course. The length of time needed could be a week or two, depending on the amount of time you would spend on the history of ~r and doing all or some of the suggested activities.

49. Cajori Prizes birth) the Mathematics Department laid on a 140th birthday tea for floriancajori, entitled florian cajori and the Golden Age of Colorado College . http://www.coloradocollege.edu/Dept/MA/History/Topics/CajPrize.html

Cajori Prizes On the centenary of Cajori's birth, in 1959, Colorado College sponsored a public lecture in his honour and memory. This was given on 25th February 1959 by the distinguished Norwegian mathematician and historian of mathematics Oystein Ore. (It was on 'Pascal and the invention of probability theory', and didn't mention Cajori once.) The next year another Cajori lecture was delivered, on April 21st 1960, this time by one of Cajori's former students, Harold Davis of Northwestern University. Davis gave rather fuller attention to Cajori for the first part of his lecture, with several reminiscences. The local newspaper the Gazette Telegraph reported this occasion as "the annual Cajori lecture", but it has not been possible to trace any subsequent one; it seems that there was an annual Cajori lecture, but for only the two years 1959 and 1960. More recently, the Mathematics Department has instituted a Cajori Prize, as its top award for mathematical prowess, awarded most years since 1986; a plaque hanging in the mathematics lounge records the names. The following students have been awarded the Cajori Prize for outstanding achievement in mathematics at Colorado College: 1986 Shane Hubler 1987 John Buchholz 1988 Nara Thacher 1990 Christopher Pounds 1992 Laura Hegerle 1993 Lewis Biscamp 1994 Evan Moran and David Carlson 1995 Stephen Talley 1997 Barry Balof 1998 Carlynn Garrett 2000 Margaret Beck

A History of the Logarithmic Slide Rule By Florian Cajori The slide rule, with its many variations has been vital to mathematics and engineering since its invention in the 17th century. Interest in this field has grown dramatically, unfortunately, there has been little information available except for manufacturers’ manuals and catalogs, making this reprint of Cajori’s classic particularly valuable. Also included with this reprint of the 1910 edition is Cajori’s extensive article “On the History of Gunter’s Scale and the Slide Rule during the 17th Century,” which sets forth his subsequent findings. There is also a helpful explanatory introduction by Dr. Robert K. Otnes, editor of the Journal of the Oughtred Society 178 pages. Illustrated. 6-1/8 x 9-1/4. Soft cover. $24.95.

Died: Aug. 14, 1930, Berkeley, Calif., U.S. Swiss-born U.S. educator and mathematician whose works on the history of mathematics were among the most eminent of his time. Cajori emigrated to the United States in 1875 and taught at Tulane University in New Orleans (1885-88) and at Colorado College (1889-1918), where he also served as dean of the department of engineering (1903-18). In 1918 he became professor of the history of mathematics at the University of California, Berkeley. His major works include A History of Mathematics (2nd ed. 1919), A History of Mathematical Notations , 2 vol. (1928-29), A History of Physics in Its Elementary Branches William Oughtred, a Great Seventeenth-Century Teacher of Mathematics (1916), and The Chequered Career of Ferdinand Rudolph Hassler (1929).

Conic Sections : Apollonius and Menaechmus Michael Lahanas Kegelschnitte: Apollonius und Menaechmus (Draws on the board) Let us consider the parabola. Where do we find it in nature? Gerald Everett Jones Hypatia of Alexandria A conic section (red curve) is the result of an intersection between a cone and a plane. Depending on the angle of intersection, the result can be a hyperbola, parabola, circle, or ellipse. It is Apollonius of Perga (Απολλώνιος ο Περγαίος ) (about 262 BC - about 190 BC), a Greek geometer, who is usually considered the inventor of the conic sections that leads to the circle, ellipse, parabola and hyperbola that are the possible trajectories of a body in a gravitational field (At least if we ignore some relativistic effects). Apollonius is known as the "Great Geometer" based on his work Conics (Conic secions) , an eight-"book" series on the subject. As he writes ..... I undertook the investigation of this subject at the request of Naucrates the geometer, at the time when he came to Alexandria and stayed with me

Return to PDF files Florian Cajori History of the Logarithmic Slide Rule This book was originally published in 1909. The author was born in Switzerland but spent all his adult life as an academic in the United States. His book describes the history of the slide rule from its invention in the 1620s up to the start of the 20th century. Those of us living in the age of email, the internet and air travel can only marvel at the effort he must have expended in locating documents held in libraries all over Europe and extracting pertinent information. This version was based on a copy in the Whipple Museum of the History of Science, Cambridge University. The book also has 17 plates of slide rules. The whole book can be downloaded in Word document format or as an Adobe PDF file Chapter Contents Preface The author deplores the absence of a book on the history of slide rules in view of their importance in many technical and scientific fields. The invention of Logarithms and of the Logarithmic Line of Numbers A short chapter on Napier's invention of logarithms and on Gunter's scale, which first represented logarithms in other than tabular form.

The second part explores the influence of Hindu and Arabic mathematicians on medieval European thought. A broad-based overview in the final section examines the trends that led to modern mathematics, including arithmetic's growth as a science and art, the renaissance of algebra, and applications of Euclidean and non-Euclidean geometry. Author Florian Cajori almost single-handedly created the history of mathematics as an academic subject in the United States, and this volume represents one of his finest professional achievements. Unabridged republication of the revised and enlarged 1917 edition.

Various ways to introduce e Mary Coupland, School of Mathematical Sciences, University of Technology, Sydney What is this e number? How is it related to the way things grow? We look at two ways to introduce e without differentiation by first principles: a graphical approach considering and and a compound interest approach. A little history Do you ever wonder whether mathematics is discovered or invented? Regularities in the physical world that lead to numbers like and e seem to lend weight to the former proposition, while reading the history of mathematics, and finding out how various mathematical creations were constructed to meet particular needs of the times, I am led to think that the latter proposition has much merit. It seems that many European mathematicians in the sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries occupied themselves with the search to make calculations easier, in particular to find ways to replace multiplications by additions. This led to Napier's invention of logarithms, which is well described in Lecture 17 of 'Great Moments in Mathematics' by Howard Eves (Eves, 1983). He explains that Napier's logarithms were not originally written about in terms of indices at all, and were not, as is often assumed, logarithms in base e.
