Detailed explanation-4: -Thales and Pythagoras Thales (635-543 BC) of Miletus (now in southwestern Turkey), was the first to whom deduction in mathematics is attributed. There are five geometric propositions for which he wrote deductive proofs, though his proofs have not survived.

Detailed explanation-5: -Pythagoras’ two most well known discoveries are the Pythagorean theorem, which allows us to calculate the hypotenuse of a right triangle, and the formula expressing the relationship between the sides and the diagonal of a square.
