Math Trivia :)




·         The implicit curve equation (x2+y2-1)3-x2y3=0 produces the heart shape.

·         The term Googol (10 followed by 100 zeros) was invented by a 9-year old boy Milton Sirotta.
·          
·         1089 multiplied by 9 gives an exact reverse: 9801.

·         From 0 to 1000, the letter "A" only appears in 1000 ("one thousand").


·         2 is called the "oddest" Even-Prime number. 2 is a unique Even-Prime because while all Evens are divisible by 2, any number apart from 2 that is divisible by 2, is not a Prime.

·         40 when written "forty" is the only number with letters in alphabetical order, while "one" is the only one with letters in reverse order.


·         A dollar can be made into small change in 293 ways.

·         If you add up the numbers 1-100 consecutively (1+2+3+4+5...) the total is 5050.


·         2 and 5 are the only prime numbers that end in 2 or 5.

·         The largest known prime number (so far) is 12,978,189 digits long.


·         The digits to the right of the Pi's (3.141...) decimal point can keep going forever, and there is no pattern to these digits at all.
