When you are at that Google page with all the results showing, click on the word Images near the top left.
Certainly! To find a mathematician born in the 2nd century, you can follow these steps:
1. Start by searching for a list of mathematicians or mathematicians who made significant contributions during the 2nd century. Wikipedia or other reputable sources can be a good starting point.
2. Once you have the list, look for mathematicians who were born within the 2nd century. Note down their names and any pertinent information you find.
3. With the list of mathematicians, choose someone who interests you or whose work aligns with your project.
4. Research further on the chosen mathematician by using academic databases, scholarly articles, biographies, or specialized mathematics resources to gather more detailed information about their life, work, and contributions in the field.
5. Organize your findings and incorporate them into your project.
Remember to always cite your sources properly to give credit to the original authors and to ensure your research is reliable.
If you need specific examples of mathematicians born in the 2nd century, some prominent ones include:
- Ptolemy (Claudius Ptolemaeus) - An Egyptian mathematician, astronomer, and geographer known for his contributions to astronomy and the Earth-centered model of the universe.
- Heron of Alexandria (Heron) - A Greek mathematician and engineer known for his work on geometry and mechanics. Heron's formula is still used to find the area of a triangle.
These are just a couple of examples, but there are many more mathematicians born in the 2nd century to explore.
