Just Doesn'T Add Up

Pythagoras once fell off a ladder
And landed on a venomous adder
This adder couldn't add
Calculus made it sad
Algebra and theorems made it madder.

Earth Is Round

I see the Sky 
Not up on head my 
In between the leaves of trees 
In par of my eye sight 
Earth is round and not flat 
Thanks,Pythagoras you are right!

three
squared,
plus four
also squared,
is twenty five,
which is five squared;
Pythagoras would be very pleased
with the smallest integer right angle triangle

The Pythagorean Trump

The crazy beliefs of Pythagoras
On beans and their fruits simply stagger us,
   But what he deduces
   Of hypotenuses
Still earns him the right to be swaggerous.

triangle
the square
of the long side
is equal to the sum

according to Mister Pythagoras

Pythagoras
eschewed plethoras;
believed music of the spheres
was played by mathematical gears. 


Note: Pythagoras is believed to have devised the doctrine of musica universalis which is a philosophical concept that regards proportions in the movements of celestial bodies—the Sun, Moon, and planets—as a form of music.

The long road to happiness is paved with hecatombs of little joys!

* In ancient Greece, to thank God for a favor received, 
People sacrificed one hundred oxen, which they called Hecatomb.
Pythagoras, after discovering the Pythagorean  theorem, sacrificed 
An hecatomb  to thank God for the Inspiration.

Pythagoras was a mathematician. He taught mathematics in ancient Greece. He created a now-famous theorem. You can bisect a rectangle or square. Draw a line between opposite corners. This will result in two right triangles. The two sides opposite each right angle are commonly called a “hypotenuse“. The sum of the squares of the base and height, equal the square of the hypotenuse.

Maths

Algebra and Geometry are the two branches of maths
Which makes us think and we are in a fuss!
It is the best subject of education
For achieving good marks we need
dedication,determination and devotion
Algebra is well known for its equation,
Geometry for its proofs and theorems.
If we practise these subjects regularly
And master these coming out with flying colours
We will be someone like Aryabhatta or Pythagoras.

Letters

She be like damn its G
G got fire that you can't see,
And C comes after B and A before all
Two is sweet so double up that honey,
From E's to F's
Nobody likes failing 
so we elevating faith. 

G skipped H
Ran to I and escaped through J...
Said K knowing that man, 
M is full of it and N always stops us
O man in the skies watching
Stars and calculating P
From phi to Pythagoras 
Studying Quantum physics 
We all are in the equation.

Timeless Friends

A Follower of Pythagoras 
and the theory of transmigration
wish to prove to his friend
the fact of reincarnation.

Although the man presented
how life to life was sewn 
his trusted old companion 
wished he’d just go home. 

Yet, he persisted 
“I can prove
that you have lived before,
You were a miller that I knew
from the town next door.”

Feeling injured
the old friend agreed
with his patience all a scoure
“I was the Miller
and you were the ass
that carried my mill flour.”
