The Quadrivium! :)
In modern usage they are the study of number in this context.
Galileo did tutor students. He worked as a private tutor in Florence where he continued to make experiments on his own
Thales, a Greek philosopher who is thought to have lived around 625 to 546 BC, was famed for his knowledge of astronomy and may also have brought geometry to Greece. He is known only through references to him in Aristotle's Metaphysics.
They did it with clear and brilliant thinking, and by applying concepts from astronomy and geometry. They figured out how to do some triangulations that gave them basic measurements from which to estimate earth's over-all dimensions.
The Quadrivium! :)
The essential part of Greek education that required students to study arithmetic, geometry, music, and astronomy was known as the Quadrivium. This curriculum focused on developing a well-rounded education in mathematical and scientific disciplines essential for a comprehensive understanding of the world.
Arithmetic, Geometry, Music, and Astronomy
It consisted of arithmetic music, astronomy, and geometry.
Algebra, although their contributions to arithmetic and geometry, as well as astronomy, were very significant.
numbers
The seven liberal arts are grammar, logic, rhetoric, arithmetic, geometry, music, and astronomy. These were the foundational subjects of education in ancient Greece and Rome, focusing on developing critical thinking and reasoning skills.
Check out the Wikipedia entry on "liberal arts," an excerpt of which is copied below:Martianus Capella (5th century AD) defines the seven Liberal Arts as grammar, dialectic, rhetoric and geometry, arithmetic, astronomy, music. In the medieval Western university, the seven liberal arts were: * the Trivium # grammar # rhetoric # logic * the Quadrivium # geometry # arithmetic # music # astronomy
In modern usage they are the study of number in this context.
They developed several kinds of mathematics, Astronomy, and geometry
The humanities consisted of seven courses of studies. The trivium was grammar, logic, and rhetoric; and the quadrivium was arithmetic, geometry, astronomy and music theory.
They are both adjectives. The first relates to geometry and the second to arithmetic.
