Suppose the value of «math xmlns=¨http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML¨»«mi mathvariant=¨normal¨»§#960;«/mi»«/math» was unknown. Would there be a way to determine the circumference of a circle with a radius of «math xmlns=¨http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML¨»«mn»1«/mn»«/math»?
Watch the video Archimedes Area Approximation for a brief history on how Archimedes found an approximation for the circumference of a circle. Some of Archimedes’ math paved the way for the Integral Calculus discussed in this Unit.
