  • The Parallelogram Law Objective: to Take Students Through the Process
    The Parallelogram Law Objective: To take students through the process of discovery, making a conjecture, further exploration, and finally proof. I. Introduction: Use one of the following… • Geometer’s Sketchpad demonstration • Geogebra demonstration • The introductory handout from this lesson Using one of the introductory activities, allow students to explore and make a conjecture about the relationship between the sum of the squares of the sides of a parallelogram and the sum of the squares of the diagonals. Conjecture: The sum of the squares of the sides of a parallelogram equals the sum of the squares of the diagonals. Ask the question: Can we prove this is always true? II. Activity: Have students look at one more example. Follow the instructions on the exploration handouts, “Demonstrating the Parallelogram Law.” • Give each student a copy of the student handouts, scissors, a glue stick, and two different colored highlighters. Have students follow the instructions. When they get toward the end, they will need to cut very small pieces to fit in the uncovered space. Most likely there will be a very small amount of space left uncovered, or a small amount will extend outside the figure. • After the activity, discuss the results. Did the squares along the two diagonals fit into the squares along all four sides? Since it is unlikely that it will fit exactly, students might question if the relationship is always true. At this point, talk about how we will need to find a convincing proof. III. Go through one or more of the proofs below: Page 1 of 10 MCC@WCCUSD 02/26/13 A.

  • CHAPTER 3. VECTOR ALGEBRA Part 1: Addition and Scalar
    CHAPTER 3. VECTOR ALGEBRA Part 1: Addition and Scalar Multiplication for Vectors. §1. Basics. Geometric or physical quantities such as length, area, volume, tempera- ture, pressure, speed, energy, capacity etc. are given by specifying a single numbers. Such quantities are called scalars, because many of them can be measured by tools with scales. Simply put, a scalar is just a number. Quantities such as force, velocity, acceleration, momentum, angular velocity, electric or magnetic field at a point etc are vector quantities, which are represented by an arrow. If the ‘base’ and the ‘head’ of this arrow are B and H repectively, then we denote this vector by −−→BH: Figure 1. Often we use a single block letter in lower case, such as u, v, w, p, q, r etc. to denote a vector. Thus, if we also use v to denote the above vector −−→BH, then v = −−→BH.A vector v has two ingradients: magnitude and direction. The magnitude is the length of the arrow representing v, and is denoted by v . In case v = −−→BH, certainly we | | have v = −−→BH for the magnitude of v. The meaning of the direction of a vector is | | | | self–evident. Two vectors are considered to be equal if they have the same magnitude and direction. You recognize two equal vectors in drawing, if their representing arrows are parallel to each other, pointing in the same way, and have the same length 1 Figure 2. For example, if A, B, C, D are vertices of a parallelogram, followed in that order, then −→AB = −−→DC and −−→AD = −−→BC: Figure 3.

  • An Elementary System of Axioms for Euclidean Geometry Based on Symmetry Principles
    An Elementary System of Axioms for Euclidean Geometry based on Symmetry Principles Boris Čulina Department of Mathematics, University of Applied Sciences Velika Gorica, Zagrebačka cesta 5, Velika Gorica, CROATIA email: [email protected] arXiv:2105.14072v1 [math.HO] 28 May 2021 1 Abstract. In this article I develop an elementary system of axioms for Euclidean geometry. On one hand, the system is based on the symmetry principles which express our a priori ignorant approach to space: all places are the same to us (the homogeneity of space), all directions are the same to us (the isotropy of space) and all units of length we use to create geometric figures are the same to us (the scale invariance of space). On the other hand, through the process of algebraic simplification, this system of axioms directly provides the Weyl’s system of axioms for Euclidean geometry. The system of axioms, together with its a priori interpretation, offers new views to philosophy and pedagogy of mathematics: (i) it supports the thesis that Euclidean geometry is a priori, (ii) it supports the thesis that in modern mathematics the Weyl’s system of axioms is dominant to the Euclid’s system because it reflects the a priori underlying symmetries, (iii) it gives a new and promising approach to learn geometry which, through the Weyl’s system of axioms, leads from the essential geometric symmetry principles of the mathematical nature directly to modern mathematics. keywords: symmetry, Euclidean geometry, axioms, Weyl’s axioms, phi- losophy of geometry, pedagogy of geometry 1 Introduction The connection of Euclidean geometry with symmetries has a long history.

  • Fundamental Theorems in Mathematics
    SOME FUNDAMENTAL THEOREMS IN MATHEMATICS OLIVER KNILL Abstract. An expository hitchhikers guide to some theorems in mathematics. Criteria for the current list of 243 theorems are whether the result can be formulated elegantly, whether it is beautiful or useful and whether it could serve as a guide [6] without leading to panic. The order is not a ranking but ordered along a time-line when things were writ- ten down. Since [556] stated “a mathematical theorem only becomes beautiful if presented as a crown jewel within a context" we try sometimes to give some context. Of course, any such list of theorems is a matter of personal preferences, taste and limitations. The num- ber of theorems is arbitrary, the initial obvious goal was 42 but that number got eventually surpassed as it is hard to stop, once started. As a compensation, there are 42 “tweetable" theorems with included proofs. More comments on the choice of the theorems is included in an epilogue. For literature on general mathematics, see [193, 189, 29, 235, 254, 619, 412, 138], for history [217, 625, 376, 73, 46, 208, 379, 365, 690, 113, 618, 79, 259, 341], for popular, beautiful or elegant things [12, 529, 201, 182, 17, 672, 673, 44, 204, 190, 245, 446, 616, 303, 201, 2, 127, 146, 128, 502, 261, 172]. For comprehensive overviews in large parts of math- ematics, [74, 165, 166, 51, 593] or predictions on developments [47].

  • Ruler and Compass Constructions and Abstract Algebra
    Ruler and Compass Constructions and Abstract Algebra Introduction Around 300 BC, Euclid wrote a series of 13 books on geometry and number theory. These books are collectively called the Elements and are some of the most famous books ever written about any subject. In the Elements, Euclid described several “ruler and compass” constructions. By ruler, we mean a straightedge with no marks at all (so it does not look like the rulers with centimeters or inches that you get at the store). The ruler allows you to draw the (unique) line between two (distinct) given points. The compass allows you to draw a circle with a given point as its center and with radius equal to the distance between two given points. But there are three famous constructions that the Greeks could not perform using ruler and compass: • Doubling the cube: constructing a cube having twice the volume of a given cube. • Trisecting the angle: constructing an angle 1/3 the measure of a given angle. • Squaring the circle: constructing a square with area equal to that of a given circle. The Greeks were able to construct several regular polygons, but another famous problem was also beyond their reach: • Determine which regular polygons are constructible with ruler and compass. These famous problems were open (unsolved) for 2000 years! Thanks to the modern tools of abstract algebra, we now know the solutions: • It is impossible to double the cube, trisect the angle, or square the circle using only ruler (straightedge) and compass. • We also know precisely which regular polygons can be constructed and which ones cannot.

  • Newton's Laws , and to Understand the Significance of These Laws
    2 INTRODUCTION Learning Objectives 1). To introduce and define the subject of mechanics . 2). To introduce Newton's Laws , and to understand the significance of these laws. 3). The review modeling, dimensional consistency , unit conversions and numerical accuracy issues. 4). To review basic vector algebra (i.e., vector addition and subtraction and scalar multiplication). 3 Definitions Mechanics : Study of forces acting on a rigid body a) Statics - body remains at rest b) Dynamics - body moves Newton's Laws First Law : Given no net force , a body at rest will remain at rest and a body moving at a constant velocity will continue to do so along a straight path F0,0, M 0 . Second Law : Given a net force is applied, a body will experience an acceleration in the direction of the force which is proportional to the net applied force F ma . Third Law : For each action there is an equal and opposite reaction FAB F BA . 4 Models of Physical Systems Develop a model that is representative of a physical system Particle : a body of infinitely small dimensions (conceptually, a point). Rigid Body : a body occupying more than one point in space in which all the points remain a fixed distance apart. Deformable Body : a body occupying more that one point in space in which the points do not remain a fixed distance apart. Dimensional Consistency If you add together two quantities, x CvC1 v CaC 2 a these quantities need to have the same dimensions (units); e.g., 2 if x, v and a have units of (L), (L/T) and (L/T ), then C 1 and C 2 must have units of (T) and T 2 to maintain dimensional consistency.

  • 3 Analytic Geometry
    3 Analytic Geometry 3.1 The Cartesian Co-ordinate System Pure Euclidean geometry in the style of Euclid and Hilbert is what we call synthetic: axiomatic, with- out co-ordinates or explicit formulæ for length, area, volume, etc. Nowadays, the practice of ele- mentary geometry is almost entirely analytic: reliant on algebra, co-ordinates, vectors, etc. The major breakthrough came courtesy of Rene´ Descartes (1596–1650) and Pierre de Fermat (1601/16071–1655), whose introduction of an axis, a fixed reference ruler against which objects could be measured using co-ordinates, allowed them to apply the Islamic invention of algebra to geometry, resulting in more efficient computations. The new geometry was revolutionary, so much so that Descartes felt the need to justify his argu- ments using synthetic geometry, lest no-one believe his work! This attitude persisted for some time: when Issac Newton published his groundbreaking Principia in 1687, his presentation was largely syn- thetic, even though he had used co-ordinates in his derivations. Synthetic geometry is not without its benefits—many results are much cleaner, and analytic geometry presents its own logical difficulties— but, as time has passed, its study has become something of a fringe activity: co-ordinates are simply too useful to ignore! Given that Cartesian geometry is the primary form we learn in grade-school, we merely sketch the familiar ideas of co-ordinates and vectors. • Assume everything necessary about on the real line. continuity y 3 • Perpendicular axes meet at the origin. P 2 • The Cartesian co-ordinates of a point P are measured by project- ing onto the axes: in the picture, P has co-ordinates (1, 2), often 1 written simply as P = (1, 2).

  • Chapter 1 Euclidean Space
    Euclidean space 1 Chapter 1 Euclidean space A. The basic vector space We shall denote by R the ¯eld of real numbers. Then we shall use the Cartesian product Rn = R £ R £ ::: £ R of ordered n-tuples of real numbers (n factors). Typical notation for x 2 Rn will be x = (x1; x2; : : : ; xn): Here x is called a point or a vector, and x1, x2; : : : ; xn are called the coordinates of x. The natural number n is called the dimension of the space. Often when speaking about Rn and its vectors, real numbers are called scalars. Special notations: R1 x 2 R x = (x1; x2) or p = (x; y) 3 R x = (x1; x2; x3) or p = (x; y; z): We like to draw pictures when n = 1, 2, 3; e.g. the point (¡1; 3; 2) might be depicted as 2 Chapter 1 We de¯ne algebraic operations as follows: for x, y 2 Rn and a 2 R, x + y = (x1 + y1; x2 + y2; : : : ; xn + yn); ax = (ax1; ax2; : : : ; axn); ¡x = (¡1)x = (¡x1; ¡x2;:::; ¡xn); x ¡ y = x + (¡y) = (x1 ¡ y1; x2 ¡ y2; : : : ; xn ¡ yn): We also de¯ne the origin (a/k/a the point zero) 0 = (0; 0;:::; 0): (Notice that 0 on the left side is a vector, though we use the same notation as for the scalar 0.) Then we have the easy facts: x + y = y + x; (x + y) + z = x + (y + z); 0 + x = x; in other words all the x ¡ x = 0; \usual" algebraic rules 1x = x; are valid if they make (ab)x = a(bx); sense a(x + y) = ax + ay; (a + b)x = ax + bx; 0x = 0; a0 = 0: Schematic pictures can be very helpful.
