Aryabhatta
Field of Mathematics: *Suggested a formula to calculate areas of triangles and circles.
*First mathematician to give the table of the sines.*”Kuttaka Pulverise” method consisted of breaking problems down into new problems
where coefficients became smaller and smaller with every step.

Aryabhatta
*Created method to find the highest common factor of a and b,also related to fractions.*Gave a table of sins to calculate the values at intervals of 90/24=3 degree
45'*Used a formula for sin (n+1) X-sin nx Sin nx and sin (n-1)x
*Introduced Versine = 1 (Cosine) into trigonometry.

Johannes Kepler1571-1630
*Interested in astronomy at an early age.*Studied to become Lutheran Minister
*Became a professor of mathematics instead.*Kepler's three laws of planetary motion.Which led directly to Newtons laws of Motion.
Sometimes called Founder of modern optics.

Johannes Kepler
• Kepler's Law: Stated that planets move along ellipses.
• He was one of the most important scientists ever.
• Generalized Alhazen's Billiard problem, developed the notion of curvature.

Johannes Kepler
*First to notice the set of Platonic regular solids were incomplete when concave solids are admitted.
*First to prove there are only 13 Archimedean solids.*Proved theorems of geometry.

Johannes Kepler
*Discovered Fibonacci series, applied it to botany.*Noted that the ratio of Fibonacci numbers converge to the Golden Mean.
*Early pioneer in calculus , embraced the idea of continuity.(others avoided due to the Zenos paradoxes.
