Squaring the circle,17th century
Numéro d’image : 11656974
| Squaring the circle. 17th-century diagram showing geometrical calculations related to the problem known as 'squaring the circle'. Also known as 'quadrature of the circle',this problem involves the attempt to construct a square of the same area as a given circle using a finite number of manipulations. In 1882,it was shown that this task was impossible due to the transcendental nature of the number 'pi' (the ratio of a circle's circumference and its diameter). This diagram is from 'Quadratura circuli nova' (New quadrature of the circle,1608) by Thomas Brugmann | |
