A Note on The History of Mathematics in Ancient World and His Applications

Abstract
When people first started calculating, measuring, and characterizing an object's shape, the science of structure, discipline, and connections was born. It entails quantitative computation and logical thinking. Additionally, the abstraction of the topic and the development of the ideal have advanced to a higher level. Mathematics was a crucial adjunct to the physical sciences and technologies starting in the seventeenth century, and it has more recently started to have a similar function in the quantitative facets of the biological sciences. For instance, the mathematics of trade and agriculture considerably outstripped computations in many civilizations where actual study was required. This development was especially noticeable in highly developed cultures that could support this activity, expand on free time for contemplation, and build on the achievements of earlier mathematicians. The study of the origins of discoveries is essentially the focus of the branch of study known as the history of mathematics. Examples of recent advances in mathematical techniques and the study of mathematical techniques for determining the past, as well as to a lesser extent in the present era and prior to the global dissemination of information, have only been found in a few locations. Beginning about 3000 BC, the kingdoms of Sumer, Akkad, and Assyria in Mesopotamia, as well as ancient Egypt and the Levantine kingdoms, used geometry, algebra, and arithmetic for time and astronomy, as well as for fiscal, economic, and natural purposes, for astronomy. The earliest known mathematical writings are found in Mesopotamia and Egypt: Rind's Mathematical Papyrus (Egyptian Circus 1800 BC), Moscow Mathematical Papyrus (Egyptian Circus 1890 BC), and Politon 322 (Babylonian era 2000-1900 BC). The Pythagorean Theorem [1] appears to be the earliest and most comprehensive mathematical development after mathematics and geometry, as all of these writings make reference to the Pythagorean triad.
