Pascal's triangle

then they jumped. One girl held back after all the rest and clung to the window casing until the flames from the window below crept up to her and set her clothing on fire. Then she jumped far over the net and was killed instantly, like all the rest"(Triangle 2). On what was meant to be a calm March 25, 1911 in New York City all went south when the worst industrial fire broke out killing 146 people. This factory was owned and operated by Isaac Harris and Max Blanck. Their factory took place on…

This summary of your project should be easily understood by someone outside your field of study. Please refrain from using jargon or unidentified acronyms. (1500 characters) The worst industrial accident in history happened in 2013 when the Rana Plaza building in Bangladesh collapsed, killing over 1000 people, the majority of them garment factory workers. The global apparel industry is notorious for its terrible working conditions. Most of the research on the causes of events like Rana Plaza…

Justin Richardson Dr. Jones Safety Management 24 May 2018 Charleston Sofa Super Store Fire The single greatest loss of firefighter lives since 9/11 terrorist attack on the World Trade Center. In the Charleston where the proud fire department haven’t had any line-of-duty casualties since 1965 then on June 18, 2007 they had gut wrenching nine casualties in the Sofa Super Store fire. The call came into dispatch 7:07pm when a passerby noticed smoke coming out over the furniture store. 7:10pm…

tragedy that was the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire (Triangle Fire) could be attributed to a plethora of cumulative factors that brought about the deaths of numerous factory workers. The event referred to as, “The Fire That Changed America” (Argersinger 1), occurred just a short time after the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory strike (Triangle Strike), which addressed the horrific conditions faced by the factory workers and their right to unionize; and confirmed the claims of the Triangle Strike…

and quicker problem solving. The Pascal’s triangle in the mathematical word is a simple representation of numbers in an array and is a binomial coefficient. The Pascal’s theorem is said to be discovered by Bailey Pascal. Whereas historians…

In 1609, a mathematician named Johann Kepler achieved the first major accomplishment of the century. Using planetary observations, Kepler devised the first two laws of planetary motion. In proving the second law, Kepler used an infinite number of triangles each with a vertex at the sun. He used a form of integral calculus, as we know it today. Again in 1614, the mathematical community was baffled by John Napier’s “invention” of logarithmic functions. It was later discovered that Jobst Bürgi had…

Gerolamo Cardano's work made no big splash in his own time, because he worked at a time when mystical incantation was more valued than mathematical calculation. In other words, people did not look for the order in nature and did not develop numerical description of the events. Therefore, a theory of the effect of randomness on those events was bound to go unappreciated. The turning point for the scientifc revolution came in 1583, just seven years after Cardano's death. The scientifc revolution…

for creating the foundation for today’s probability theory. He found out that there is a fixed likelihood of rolling a particular number when rolling the dice. Another thing Pascal invented that contributed to mathematics was Pascal’s triangle. Pascal’s triangle is a triangle with ones at the ends and the other numbers are the sum of the nearest two numbers. He also invented a calculator, which he called the Pascaline. It had a wheel with eight movable parts for dialing, each part had a…

Niccolò Fontana Tartaglia Niccolò Fontana Tartaglia was an Italian mathematician who lived from 1499/1500 to 1557. When he was 12, a French army attacked his town and home, and a soldier cut his face and throat. Left with a speech impediment, he became known by the name “Tartaglia,” which means “the stammerer” in Italian. Tartaglia made many great contributions to the world and specifically to mathematics. He is responsible for finding a solution for cubic equations, writing important…

Amazing. There are many words that can be used to describe Mathematics but in a nutshell, it is the universal language. Mathematics is also a way of thinking. It’s having the ability to open your mind up to endless possibilities. For example, Pascal’s Triangle is an amazing and efficient way to figure out the coefficients of a binomial series. Mathematics knows different ways to solve one problem. What is so fascinating to me is that there are a lot of problems in mathematics that have a…
