... inscribed it into a 96-sided regular polygon. He also invented a lot of useful math equations such as measurement on the sphere, cylinder, on spirals and the sand reckoned. The pulley gave him great fame among other mathematicians. He started the idea of "calculus" but Sir Isaac Newton invented it and Gottfried won Leibniz 2000 years later. An interesting fact is that after Archimedes proved the relationship between the volume of a sphere is two thirds of the cylinder, he inscribed it onto his tomb. In the geometry, he discovered the center of gravity of plane figures. There were two books written by the mathematician himself. One of them was about parallelogram, a triangle and a trapezium. The second one was about the gravity of a segment of a parabola. In Rome, Archimedes used experiment to discover exponents or powers. He used this to calculate the number of sands in ...
