Preface and Arithmetic and Geometry philosophy of mathematics

Mathematics gives access to the part of philosophy including introduction, arithmetic, and geometry. In other words, mathematics concerns the way people perceive this physical world and hence essential to the physical world. The arithmetic is a philosophical part of mathematics that deal with the property and manipulation of numbers. For instance, in arithmetic, the sequence has the constant difference between the two consecutive terms, while in the geometry the sequence has a ratio between the terms.

Perhaps no other number has fascinated scientists, mathematicians and artists alike as the Golden Ratio. Also known as the golden mean or golden section (depending on its application), the Golden Ratio is observed by many people to occur naturally, manifesting itself in many natural shapes and geometry. This interesting phenomenon has resulted in an almost cult-like fascination among many people. In fact, there are people, including notable scientists and mathematicians with the likes of Johannes Kepler, Leonardo Da Vinci and Fra Luca Pacioli, who refer to the Golden Ratio as the ‘Divine Proportion,’ suggesting that the Golden ...

The Impact of the Guaranteed Price Policy on the European Sugar Market

Sugar industry is one of the most dynamic in the structure of the food industry and plays a significant role in the economies of several countries. The European Union leads the five largest importers of sugar. Sugar production in the EU is expected to grow by 10% in the 2017/18 season. The production may reach 18.3 million tons, but still will be lower than the record 2014/15 season (19.4 million tons). Sugar production growth is expected in France (up to 5.5 million tons) and the UK (up to 1.4 million tons). However, despite the increase in production, the EU ...

Introduction There is no limit to what human intellect can achieve. This mindset is particularly evident during the Renaissance; a period in European history wherein there was a significant ‘rebirth’ or revival of classical work. Scholars believe that the Renaissance started sometime in the 13th century and ended at the onset of the postmodern era in the late 16th century. During this period, Europeans became increasingly interested in the arts, architecture and science of ancient Greek and Rome. The significance of the Renaissance is that it ended the long period of cultural darkness that characterized the Middle ...

Trans-World Flight Center, John F. Kennedy Airport (1956-1962)

Opened in 1962, the Trans World Flight Center of the John F. Kennedy Airport is one of the finest structures belonging to the Organic Modern Period that emerged in the mid-20th century.1 What makes this style truly remarkable was the fact that it is based on neo-futuristic designs as well as embodying strict adherence to geometrical proportions, the creation of functional space for the passengers, aircraft, employees, and maintaining harmonious interaction of the structure in its environment.2 The structure was designed by Eero Saarinen, a notable architect and one of the prolific figures that proposed designing the concept of ...

Modernism created Post-Modernism and the emergence of these two influential art movements created a lasting impact on the artists’ perception of iconography. The history concerning modernism dates back in the Renaissance period since the majority of the artists at that time explored various kinds of iconography such as painting mythological creatures, portraiture, and humanism which contrasts the iconography of the Medieval period. But the lasting effects of the modern period were felt in the early 19th century up to the early phase of the 20th century. The concept of Modernism meant an improvisation of the existing artistic trend by ...

Introduction

In the realm of Mathematics, there are many concepts that can be applied to multiple fields of mathematics. One of these concepts is the “Fibonacci sequence” that was developed by Leonardo Pisano during the 13th century. The Fibonacci number and sequence proposed by him gives a clear indication that mathematics can be connected to many things that may seem unrelated to it. The Fibonacci sequence has remarkable characteristics; it can be applied to various fields like discrete mathematics, number theory and geometry. By definition, the numbers in the Fibonacci sequence starts with either 0 and 1, or 1and1, and ...

Q1 The Australian Housing Market Report, prepared for National Australia Bank Ltd. by RP Data in November 2014, delineates the core changes that occur in the Australian housing market. Nowadays, many economists argue whether or not there is a housing bubble on the Australian housing market, because some features of it let them assume that these market conditions are quite similar to those that existed prior to the collapse of housing markets in other counties (Mercer, 2014). Such market failures, or so-called price corrections, can bear great risks for state stability and welfare due to the strong social impact ...

Like all ancient people, the Greek thought of temples as houses for the gods. While in Greece the temple plan was derived from the megaron found in Mycenaean palaces, Roman temples were derived from Greek and Etruscan precedents. The Greek temples were decorated with an exterior colonnade, and the statue of the god was housed in the main room (the naos) facing the east where an outdoor altar for sacrifices was placed. The Roman temples borrowed the podium (base) and the frontality of the temple from Etruscan temples. From Greece came the columns, the cella (central room), the porch ( ...

It is appropriate to note that often conducted by historians comparison of philosophy of Descartes and Plato on the grounds that both saw in mathematics the science that was the most reliable of the sciences and believed that only it can provide the basis for physics, that is why many of philosophers and historians lose sight of the differences between these thinkers in understanding what mathematics itself and its role in cognition. First of all, Plato saw in mathematics primarily a means to prepare the mind to comprehend some super-sensible reality that was the intelligible world of ideas, whereas ...

This is a picture of the Virgin Mary done on a wooden panel by Lorenzo Monaco an Italian artist between1370-1425. It is currently in Norton Simon Art Foundation Museum. It is a painting of the Virgin during the annunciation by Angel Gabriel, and her quiet moment of reading is interrupted by this startling news. The Virgin`s pose depicts her marvel at receiving the news that she will be the Mother of Christ. The artist has done an excellent painting her blue drapery complete with highlights of yellow, pink and green in its fall. The halo on her head is also immaculately ...

OF THE GOLDEN RATIO

This paper explores the applications of the golden ratio in different aspects of civilization such as art, engineering, architecture, nature and science. The golden ratio (represented by the Greek letter φ) is also referred to as the divine ratio, golden section, and Phi. It is the ratio that can be described by the golden rectangle (See Figure 1). The golden rectangle has sides which measures x and x+1 respectively. The ratio (x+1)/x = x/1. Rearranging the expression to quadratic equation form, this becomes x2-x-1. Solving the equation yields two irrational numbers. The two solutions are (1+5) ...

(A). Both Antigone by Sophocles and Apology by Plato reveal that although the concepts of the rule of law and civil disobedience seem to be completely different and opposite of each other, if we keep in mind that a higher authority exists, we may view the two ideas as compatible. Sophocles very effectively depicts the apparently unsolvable conflict between the two concepts in his tragic drama Antigone. It becomes apparent that Antigone has absolutely no regard for the rule of men since she performs an illegal act of mercy and is condemned for it. Instead, she holds divine, unfailing ...

Mathematics is a creative and reasoning activity engaging generalization and abstraction to recognize, define and use relationships and pattern. Math’s symbolic nature gives a powerful, concise and precise means of communication. Mathematical concepts have progressed across all humanities from ancient times and are always advancing. It is essential to technological and scientific development in many arenas of endeavor. Moreover, to its applied usage, learning mathematics is a valuable quest in its own right, giving opportunities for challenge, originality, and leisure (Board of Studies NSW, 2012). To learn mathematics, students must be taught with a curriculum or syllabus that gives skills, knowledge, and ...

A golden rectangle is one whose lengths are in the ratio 1:1.6180339875, the golden ratio. The most interesting feature of the golden rectangle is that on partitioning the rectangle into a square and another rectangle, results into a rectangle with similar properties. The flag of Togo also closely approximates the golden rectangle. The golden ratio, also referred to as the golden mean or section, is the irrational number (1+ √5)/2 represented by the Greek letters τ or φ. Due to its appearance in many civilizations in history, it is reasonable to assume it has been discovered and rediscovered and probably that’ ...

Geometry of Plane Shapes

This is a branch of mathematics that is basically concerned with shapes and their properties. The shapes involved here are plane shapes (geometry) which have to do with lines, circles, triangles, rectangles, squares and other polygons which include pentagons, hexagons, octagons etc. other types of shapes are solid geometry (including cubes, pyramids, prisms) The general properties of planes shapes also called flat surfaces are that we can calculate their areas and perimeter or distance around the shape. We however cannot find their volumes and their total surface areas because their thicknesses (or widths or breadth) are really negligible compared ...
