Interesting Facts About Our NUMBERS
The numbers we write are made up of algorithms, (1, 2, 3, 4, etc) called Arabic algorithms, to distinguish them from the
Roman algorithms (I; II; III; IV; etc.).
The Arabs popularized these algorithms, but their origin goes back to the Phoenician merchants that used them to count
and do their commercial comparability.
Have you ever asked the question why 1 is one, 2 is two , 3 is three…..?
What is the logic that exist in the Arabic algorithms?
Easy, very easy…! It’s the ANGLES.
Look at these algorithms written in their primitive form and check it out! …
 1 angle, 2 angles, 3 angles,
4 angles
5 angles, 6 angles, 7 angles, 8 angles
9 angles
AND the most interesting and intelligent of all,
ZERO ANGLE
