THE HISTORY OF LIMIT: FROM GEOMETRY AND NUMBER SEQUENCE PERSPECTIVE

This project explores some classical mathematics problems from ancient Greece and the 17th century. The problems to be studied are the ratio of the areas of two circles solved by Eudoxus, the area of parabolic segment solved by Archimedes, and the construction of sequences of approximating a non...

The problems to be studied are the ratio of the areas of two circles solved by Eudoxus, the area of parabolic segment solved by Archimedes, and the construction of sequences of approximating a non perfect square roots solved by Girard. This project involved an analysis of the mathematical content based on historical contextual which focused on problem-solving.
