The square of a number is one of the integers of the series 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, etc. It is not difficult to verify the relationship between consecutive members of this series. We find that if we add the square of x, twice more x plus 1, the next successive square is obtained. For example, 5 2 + 2.5 + 1 = 25 + 10 + 1 = 36 = 6 2 If we know the value of a given number squared, the next number is easily obtained.

It is natural to suspect that the arithmetic triangle is not a Pascal invention. The name of this triangle varies greatly throughout the world. The French call it Pascal's triangle. The Chinese call it the Yang Hui Triangle. Italians call it the Tarataglia triangle. We find other denominations, such as Tartaglia-Pascal triangle or simply arithmetic triangle or combinatorial triangle.

Choose a three-digit number: Ex: 234 Repeat this number in front of it: 234234 Now divide by 13: 234234/13 = 18018 Now divide the result by 11: 18018/11 = 1638 Divide the result again, only now by 7: 1638/7 = 234 The result is equal to the three digit number you had chosen: 234.

What is firmer? A 3 foot chair or a 4 foot chair? Have you noticed that a 4-foot chair often goes awry? This does not happen with a 3 foot chair, which will always be firmer. This is because three unaligned points will always determine a plane. When we have a chair with 4 feet, we have four points that can determine up to four planes.

The volume of the earth is approximately 1 sextillion cubic meters. To observe the movement of the earth, scientists create computer systems that analyze the earth by dividing it into cubes. In this case, taking cubes of 1 kilometer edge, the system should analyze 1 trillion cubes. Because of this immensity of mathematical calculations, earthquake prediction is difficult.

The deficient numbers were introduced by Nicomachus in the Introductio Arithmetica. They are those whose sum of their own dividers is less than this number.
