A pizza that has radius z and height a has
volume Pi z z a.

 10! seconds is exactly 6 weeks.

10! means 10 factorial. 10! = 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 = 3628800 seconds.
Which is 42 days, or 6 weeks, exactly.

 Circle has the largest area when you compare many

shapes with similar perimeter.
The largest known primes are ones of the form (2m 1).
This is an instance of Mersenne primes.As of Sept 2010, the largest known primes were :
243,112,609 - 1
242,643,801 - 1
237,156,667 1

The Five Most Important Numbers in Mathematics in

One Equation :
e^i*pi + 1 =0

Formula for primes: f(n) = n2 + n + 41.

Euler discover
ed that this formula has a long string of prime values: it is prime for all n between 0 and 39
inclusive. However, it is not prime for all integers.

It is a rather curious fact that i raised to the i-th

power is actually a real number.
o In fact, its value is approximately 0.20788.
The repeating decimal 0.999 = 1
X=0.999
10X= 9.999
10X-X= 9.999-0.999
9X= 9
X=1

Yet, there are controversies over this proof.

 Did you know that whenever you shuffle a deck of

cards, it is quite likely that you are making history?
A single random riffle shuffle produces nearly 252 possible configurations. Thus any given
configuration achieved through random shuffling has never appeared before in the history of
shuffling!

Synonyms of Zero.
Zero is the only number which has so many names such as naught,
nought, nil, zilch, and zip.

Americans called mathematics math, arguing that

mathematics functions as a singular noun .
So, they say math should be singular too. They have been calling maths math for much
longer than we have called it maths.

The easiest way to remember the value of Pi

(3.1415926) is by counting each words letter in :

May I have a large container of

coffee.
The universe isn't big enough for Googolplex
A googolplex is 10 to the power of a googol, or 10 to the power of 10 to the power of 100.
Our known universe doesnt have enough space to actually write that out on paper.

 Multiplying ones always gives you palindromic

numbers.
If you multiply
111,111,111 111,111,111 you get 12,345,678,987,654,321 - a palindrome number.

The faces on a die with six sides are placed such

that opposite faces add up to seven.

A 20 sided die: Icosahedron

It is a polyhedron that is one of the platonic solids having 30
edges, 12 vertices with each face being an equilateral triangle.
