The Story of Pi(π): from Pythagoras to Newton

[@AWellRestedDog]

This was a really nice quick overview of the history of pi, neatly packed into 4 and a half minutes. The pacing was excellent and beginner friendly, and I like how you showed the geographical map of ideas!

Hey thanks! I also enjoyed your video. There was some nice in depth stuff.

[@MATHsegnale]

Nice video! I liked a lot the overview of many different approaches related to Pi through history!! Thank you!

Valuable Maths video 👌👌👌

You are a legendary animation video maker.I really a fan of yours video sir.

Where are indian and Chinese mathematicians. Aryabhatta (discoverer of zero), Brahmagupta etc. Pi was used to build havan kund in ancient Indian history.

@1:39 x1 - x2 squared you mean for length of the base

[@symbolspangaea]

Really cool!

[@Frederick-111]

Awesome as always

[@ihrtdti]

animations, explanations and video is overall AWESOME!!! thank you so much you practically saved my life during high school mathematics 💗💗👏👏

[@johnchessant3012]

Nice video

[@formulanova12]

Ah the history videos are back

[@clemensvorbauer1183]

otherwise this is a really nice video, thank you!

Lack of knowledge Baudhayana is believed to have born around 800 BCE while Pythagoras was born in 570 BCE. The popular theorem that carries the name of Pythagoras says square of length of hypotenuse is equal to sum of squares of two other sides in a right angle triangle.

[@clemensvorbauer1183]

a²+b²=c² is not a proof of Pythagoras' Theorem (as you say at 1:25), it's just the Theorem itself. The proofs are a little bit longer...

[@amit2.o761]

where are the indians and Chinese and many more who contributed on descovering pi ?

[@atulantil3]

Where are indian mathematicians who contributed the more in value

Archimedes couldn't simply 'increase the sides of the polygon' to get pi, how would you do that? He started with the hexagon, and with Pythagoras' theorem he was able to double the sides! So he could do the 12-, 24-, 48- and at last famously the 96-gon, but not a 10-gon like you show in the video...
