Achievements
and Contributions
Details
The fundamental theorem of calculus is a theorem that links the concept of differentiating a function with the concept of integrating a function.
*Isaac Barrow is generally given credit for his early role in the development of infinitesimal calculus.
[Infinitesimal calculus is calculus]
*In particular, for the discovery of the fundamental theorem of calculus.
*His work centered on the properties of the tangent.
In mathematics, the trigonometric functions are functions of an angle. They relate the angles of a triangle to the lengths of its sides. Trigonometric functions are important in the study of triangles and modeling periodic phenomena, among many other applications.
Details
Kappa curve or Gutschoven's curve is a two-dimensional algebraic curve resembling the Greek letter. (X)
*Barrow was the first to calculate the tangents of the kappa curve.
*Isaac Newton was a student of Barrow's, and Newton went on to develop calculus in a modern form.
*He first recognized that what became known as the processes of integration and differentiation in calculus are inverse operations
In mathematics, technique of finding a function g(x) the derivative of which, Dg(x), is equal to a given function f(x)
In mathematics, process of finding the derivative, or rate of change, of a function.

Although Barrow was regarded by his mathematical contemporaries in England as second only to Newton, he was more widely esteemed for his sermons and other writings on behalf of the Church of England.
