Bhaskaracharya

Bhaskaracharya was born in Shaka 1036 (1114 A.D.)

Bhaskaracharya himself, it seems, has written about his birth,

his place of residence, his teacher and his education in his
Siddhanta Shiromani. Bhaskaracharyas father named
Mahesvara was a Brahmin of Shandilya Gotra, well versed in
Shroud (originated from shut or Vedas) and Smart
(originated from smut) Dharma, respected by all and who was
an authority in all the branches of knowledge. Bhaskaracharya
acquired knowledge at his feet. We also come to know that
Bhaskaracharya was a resident of Vijjadveed and that his
father taught him Mathematics and Astronomy. Vijjadveed
surrounded by the hills of Sahyadri was the centre of learning
at the time of Bhaskaracharya

Bhaskaracharya
Bhaskaracharyas name was
actually Bhaskara only but the title
Acharya was added and conferred
to mean Bhaskara the Teacher.
He is also known as
Bhaskaracharya II.
Bhaskaracharya became the head
of the Astronomical Observatory at
Ujjain, the leading Mathematical
centre in India at that time.
Outstanding mathematicians such
as Varadamihira and Brahmagupta
had worked there and built up
strong school of Mathematical
astronomy.

Bhakaracharya 2
He reached an understanding of the number systems and
solving equation which was not to be achieved in Europe for
several centuries.
Six works by Bhaskaracharya are known and they are:

1) Lilavati (The Beautiful) which is on Mathematics;

2) Bijaganita (Which is on Algebra);
3) The Siddhanta Shiromani which is in two parts, the first on mathematical
astronomy with the second part on the sphere;
4) The Vasanabhasya of Mitaksha which is Bhaskaracharyas own commentary
on the Siddhanta Shiromani;
5) Karana-kutuhala (Calculations of Astronomical Wonders or Brahmatulya
which is a simplified version of the Siddhanta Shiromani, and;
6) Vivarana which is a commentary on the Shishyadhividdhidatantra of Lalla.

Bhaskaracharya 2
He studied eigh books of Grammar,six texts of Medicine, six books on Yoga, five
books of Mathematics, four Vedas, five books on Bharat Shastras and two Mimansas.
Bhaskaracharya calls himself a poet and most probably he was a Vedanti, since he has
mentoned Parambrahman in his verse.

It is the first three of these works which are the most interesting
certainly from the point of view of Mathematics.
Bhaskaracharya wrote so many books. And those book are below

The Siddhanta Shrimoni:(written in 1150) demonstrates Bhaskaras knowledge of

trigonometry, including including the sine table and relationships between
different trigonometric functions. He also discovered spherical trigonometry,
along with other interesting trigonometrically results. In particular Bhaskara
seemed more interested in trigonometry for its own sake than his predecessors
who saw it only as a tool for calculation. Among the many interesting results
given by Bhaskara, discoveries first found in his works include
Computation
of sines of angles of 18 and 36 degrees, and the now well known
formulae.
Siddhanta shiromani are encluding a the length of sidereal
year. These sections covered topics such as mean longituded of the
planets,true longituded of the planets, Solar and lunar eclipses,
Cosmography and Geograph etc

Astronomy Theory
He accurately calculated the time that earth took to revolve around
the Sun as 365.2588 days that is a difference of 3 minutes of modern
acceptance of 365.2563 days. This was much
before Leibniz or Newton could come up with Differential or Integral
Calculus and to explain the forces of gravity. He was the first to
conceive the
Differential Coefficient and Differential Calculus.

Surya Siddhant

In his book Surya Siddhant he wrote on the gravitational force, that

helps to keep the planets, the sun and the moon in their respective
orbits much before the world could even wake and realize these findings.
KUTTAKA the Quadratic Indeterminate equations was given by him in
12th century well
before the European Mathematicians got it in the 17th century.
Brahmagupta in the 7th century developed an Astronomical Model
using which Bhaskaracharya was able to define Astronomical
Quantities.

Bijaganita
Lilavati

Bhakaracharya 2

Bhaskara II was married with children. His passed his mathematical

knowledge to his son Loksamudra and years later Loksamudra's son
helped to set up a school
in 1207 for the study of Bhaskara's writings. It is believed that
Bhaskaras book Lilavati was named after his daughter.
Bhakaracharya died was around 1185.

Bhakara-2 :(Launch Date :20.11.1981)

Second experimental remote
sensing satellite similar to Bhaska1. Provided experience in building
and operating a remote sensing
satellites system on an end-to-end
basis. Launched by Russian
launch vehicle Intercosmos.
