Background

During today's lecture you will be learning about ARchimedes, one of the greatest mathematical minds of all time. During the lecture we will cover Archimedes' method for finding the surface area and volume of a cylinder and sphere.

It took Archimedes his entire life to discover these formulas, and he was so proud of them that he had a picture of a sphere inscribed with a cylinder, and the formula for the volume of a sphere, carved into his headstone. In the 13th century, Archimedes' works were translated into Latin, opening them up to study by Europeans.
