# 20 Best Calculus Books in 2021 [Best Sellers Included]

Fresh into Calculus? Are you looking for the best calculus books that you should start with? Well, when I was your age I had tried several books from library, borrowed books from friends and purchased over a dozen from Amazon. But not all books were effective and most of these only wasted my time. Going over too many books can be harmful. So , you should

# Irrational Numbers and The Proofs of their Irrationality

“Irrational numbers are those real numbers which are not rational numbers!” Def.1: Rational Number A rational number is a real number which can be expressed in the form of where $a$ and $b$ are both integers relatively prime to each other and $b$ being non-zero. Following two statements are equivalent to the definition 1. 1. $x=\frac{a}{b}$ is rational if and only if

# The Area of a Disk

If you are aware of elementary facts of geometry, then you might know that the area of a disk with radius $R$ is $\pi R^2$ . The radius is actually the measure(length) of a line joining the center of disk and any point on the circumference of the disk or any other circular lamina. Radius for a disk is always the same, irrespective of

# Triangle Inequality

Triangle inequality has its name on a geometrical fact that the length of one side of a triangle can never be greater than the sum of the lengths of other two sides of the triangle. If $a$ , $b$ and $c$ be the three sides of a triangle, then neither $a$ can be greater than $b+c$ , nor$b$ can be

Ramanujan (1887-1920) discovered some formulas on algebraic nested radicals. This article is based on one of those formulas. The main aim of this article is to discuss and derive them intuitively. Nested radicals have many applications in Number Theory as well as in Numerical Methods . The simple binomial theorem of degree 2 can be written as: ${(x+a)}^2=x^2+2xa+a^2 \ \ldots (1)$ Replacing $a$ by
