Abstract:
Mathematics (Greek thematike, mathema - knowledge, science), Mathematics [1] - the science of knowledge based on clear logical observations. Because the first object was a number, it was often referred to as the "science of arithmetic" (in today's mathematics, calculations, even operations on formulas, play a very small role). Mathematics is one of the oldest sciences, with a long history of development, and at the same time, "What is mathematics?" The answer to this question has also changed and deepened. In Greece, mathematics means geometry. In the IX-XIII centuries the concept of mathematics was expanded by algebra and trigonometry.
