History

kondaur [170]4 years ago
4 0
Mathematics during the Golden Age of Islam, especially during the 9th and 10th centuries, was built on Greek mathematics (Euclid, Archimedes, Apollonius) and Indian mathematics (Aryabhata, Brahmagupta). Important progress was made, such as the full development of the decimal place-value system to include decimal fractions, the first systematised study of algebra (named for The Compendious Book on Calculation by Completion and Balancing by scholar Al-Khwarizmi), and advances in geometry and trigonometry.[1]

Arabic works also played an important role in the transmission of mathematics to Europe during the 10th to 12th centuries.[2]

Why did the number of tenant families increase steadily post Civil War?
AleksandrR [38]

After the Civil War, during the Reconstruction era, most of the freedmen in the South went back to work in the cotton fields as a way of sustenance. However, since they were already free, the Radical Republicans in Congress thought of a way to make former slaves free-holding farmers. This resulted in the vast majority of freedmen becoming tenant farmers. Thus, <em>tenancy</em> and <em>sharecropping</em> became fundamental in the southern Reconstruction process.
