      Yes but it doesn’t proof that the square root of two wasn’t invented by people because he didn’t proof that this special kind of triangle can emerge naturally.
      But at least squares can emerge naturally and the ratio of the diagonal and the edge of a square is the square root of two.

      Well, ancient math was grounded on logic, which is what philosophers use, as are most sciences, going as far as using geometry as proof. And mind you, the introduction of, and hence the acceptance of negative numbers and zero were much more recent than you would think (if you would just look at the centuries, you'd see that 2000-2099 is the 21st century all because the Greeks or Romans do not have the concept of zero), and as with the spread current number system that we use today. The name imaginary numbers was a comment of disdain by famous mathematicians of the time when it was first conceptualized, but now it had apparently allowed us to build technology faster by embracing the fact that "real" numbers are insufficient to describe the universe. If I'm not mistaken, all of these concepts were well within the last 1000 years, and I believe although knowledge is spreading and advancing really fast, there is just so much we can learn or teach that we end up graduating and working all the while not seeing the relevance of the math subjects nor the beautiful history, philosophy and logic behind them.

    First, thank you sincerely, since you put me on the track of learning mathematics, something i was trying unsuscessfuly for a long time . Second, it would be more acurate (althoug not completely) to have the philosopher on the right, whom is Aristotle, pointing out the existence of irrationality in the numbers realm and the one on the right, whom is Plato, getting nuts about it. The one who is said to be annoyed was Pythagoras but Plato belived in the ideal existence of perfect forms so it is good enough. Thank you again!!!

    Adm! The sir said that 9 ÷ 9 = 0.999.., it's wrong, all number divided by himself is exactly one.

    • @MichaelLeightonsKarlyPilkboys
      @MichaelLeightonsKarlyPilkboys ปีที่แล้ว +1

      0.999... (infinitely recurring) is just another way to write 1.
      0.999... is the same as 1, the same way 1 is the same as 2/2, because 1 - 2/2 = 0. There is no difference between the numbers.
      0.999... - 1 = 0 too, because it is the same number. Intuitively you think it has to be 0.0...01, because at _some_ point _surely_ it stops. But it is infinitely recurring, so it never stops. It extends forever, but our brains can't process that concept.
      There is no number that exists that can come between 0.999... and 1, because there is no difference.

    • @mathmistico
      @mathmistico ปีที่แล้ว

      You are right. But actually
      1/9 = 0. 1111...
      and so if we multiply it by 9 on both sides of the equation, we have
      9/9 = 0.9999...
      I hope this helps u

    • @Velnio_Išpera
      @Velnio_Išpera หลายเดือนก่อน

      do it on your calculator. Divide 1 by 9, you get 0.1111... then multiply it by 9, you will get 1 instead of 0.999... Hehe, it's not wrong :D

    It would seem for root 2 to exist, it requires lines to be constructed with 0 thickeness or width. However such lines are difficult to see.
    On any physical construction of a triangle, the perimeter of the triangle will be different along the outer edge compared to the inner edge. And then which one is root 2 the outer edge or the inner edge?
    So it would seem to me that it’s just a mathematical concept. We can draw a very accurate approximation, but true mathematical perfection only exists on the paper.

    • @carultch
      @carultch 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Without other information, yes. Irrational numbers that lie on the real number line, are real numbers.
      There are imaginary and complex numbers that are irrational, so not all irrational numbers are real. But if a number's defining characteristic is that it is irrational, and no one bothered to specify if part of it is imaginary, most likely, it is a real number.
      The terms integer, rational, irrational, algebraic, and transcendental, all refer to how the number fits between previously understood classifications numbers on the real number line, unless otherwise specified that it is non-real. The terms real and imaginary, refer to which number line it resides upon, with complex referring to a sum of real and imaginary.

    Professor pardon my ignorance, but kindly explain again how can .99999........(infinity) be equal to 1 ?

      there is no number between them, so they are the same number

      It's a limit. The limit as sum of 9/10^k from k=1 to infinity will equal 1
