The influence of Pythagoras in mathematics and philosophy remains strong today, as do the mysteries surrounding the great Greek philosopher. Like philosophy and religion, the science of mathematics can change the way we perceive the world and has a massive impact on our lives.

Pythagoras’ philosophy influenced both Plato and Aristotle, and through them his ideas were fundamental in Western philosophy. The Pythagorean school was pivotal in the evolution of human intellect and in raising the level of philosophical thought for 2,500 years.

In his life 2,500 years ago, the Greek philosopher combined philosophy, mathematics, and religion, and his work and ideas are still influential to this day. The Pythagorean theorem remains fundamental in mathematics and is taught in schools across the world.

This practical ebook features an introduction to Pythagoras and an analysis of his theorem for young students. It also includes exercises for practice, and their answers at the end.
