- A sphere has two sides. However, there are
one-sided
surfaces.
- There are shapes
of constant width other than the circle. One can even drill
square holes.
- There are just five
regular polyhedra
- In a group
of 23 people, at least two have the same birthday with the
probability greater than 1/2
- Everything you can do with a ruler and a
compass you can do with the compass
alone
- Among all shapes with the same
perimeter a circle
has the largest area.
- There are curves that fill a
plane without holes
- Much as with people, there are irrational,
perfect, complex numbers
- As in philosophy, there are transcendental
numbers
- As in the art, there are imaginary
and surreal numbers
- A straight line has dimension 1, a plane - 2.
Fractals have mostly fractional
dimension
- You are wrong if you think Mathematics is not fun
- Mathematics studies
neighborhoods,
groups
and free
groups, rings,
ideals,
holes,
poles
and removable
poles, trees,
growth
...
- Mathematics also studies models,
shapes, curves,
cardinals,
similarity,
consistency,
completeness,
space
...
- Among objects of mathematical study are heredity,
continuity,
jumps,
infinity,
infinitesimals,
paradoxes...
- Last but not the least, Mathematics studies stability,
projections
and values,
values are often absolute
but may also be extreme,
local or global.
- Trigonometry aside, Mathematics comprises fields like Game
Theory, Braids
Theory, Knot
Theory and more
- One
is morally obligated not to do anything impossible
- Some numbers are square,
yet others are triangular
- The next sentence is true but you must not believe it
- The previous sentence was false
- 12+3-4+5+67+8+9=100
and there exists at least one other representation of 100 with 9
digits in the right order and math operations in between
- One can cut a
pie into 8 pieces with three movements
- Program=Algorithms+Data
Structures
- There is something
the dead eat but if the living eat it, they die.
- A clock
never showing right time might be preferable to the one showing
right time twice a day
- Among all shapes with the same area
