    Is Non-Euclidean Geometry the Key to Unlocking New Mathematical Discoveries?

    Hi everyone, i have to do a general math project for my math course. It is nothng special, just a proof of a theorem on my choice and a bit of history and interesting facts. I kind of decided to do it on non-euclidean geometry, because it is fun. Now my question: does anybody know a good...

    Understanding the Euclidean Algorithm: Solving for Relatively Prime Numbers

    I am little confused on this issue, actually the thing that is confusing me is my book. We all know the formula m=qn+r and 0<r<n In the formula we go until r=0, then you will know relativley prime. When given a problem, for example, (862,347) we have m=862 while n=347 so we have the...

    Proving Bisection of Angles with Euclidean Geometry

    I was at brunch this morning and I met a young man of about 35 years who is a musician but studied mathematics in college. He mentioned to me that one of the great problems of mathematics is the problem of trisecting the angle. He taught me how to bisect an angle, and kept emphasizing that...
