It is not surprising that many early philosophers were also mathematicians. Etymologically, Philosophy is defined as the love of wisdom, which has to do with the quest to acquire knowledge that is based on logical thinking. Relatedly, Mathematics is the “science that deals with the logic of shape, quantity and arrangement” (Hom, 2013, para. 1).
From this point on, we can see that philosophy and mathematics share one common identity, which is to find the true nature of the elements that surround us. It is worth mentioning that in the ancient times Philosophy was not separate from other field of study such as astronomy, mathematics, navigation, and so forth… Philosophy was considered as a big tree and its branches were all the other studied disciplines back then. It is only later that many fields such as psychology, math, among others, would acquire their independence from Philosophy. In any case, Pythagoras is one of the earliest mathematicians and philosophers worth talking about. Early philosophers such as Thales, Anaximander, Anaximines (all from Miletus, Greece) have grappled with the “problem of the nature of the universe” (Frost, 1989, p. 6).
Pythagoras, to whom we owe the Pythagorean Theorem in Geometry, believed that many elements in the universe were related and that relation can be translated in numbers and numbers are the “stuff”

How did the constitution divide the North and South? How were they different?
nordsb [41]
The North didn’t believe in slavery and the south did. The constitution divided them because they both believed in different things. In the South there was more plantations so they needed slaves to keep up the production when the North was cold and didn’t need much help on plantations.

How did Congress's approach to Reconstruction differ from Presidential Reconstruction under Johnson?
Marta_Voda [28]

There were full access and control given to the radical republicans over the policy making in Congress reconstruction whereas in presidential reconstruction 10 % rule was to be followed.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • The 10% rule says that there can reenter of a  state if 10 % of the voters took the pledge with an oath of commitment to be abiding by emancipation.
