why is he admired so much by the scientific and mathematical community?
Because the names of all the Babylonians he stole from has been lost.
He developed war machines to protect the Greeks when under siege.
He identified pi.
His work on Conics was largely influential in Apollonius' work on the subject.
He started using geometrical proofs to prove fluid dynamics and physics concepts.
He wrote On Spirals, which was an unbelievably intelligent and well developed work.

What kind of question is that? Why is anyone admired? One need only read up on his contributions and accomplishments to find this out, the only real question is, is he admired by you??

So every civilization that had masonry. Pitagoras is pretty overated. Archimides is godlike modo.

Its hard to find reliable consistent information, but suffice to say he accomplished far more than just one theorem..

Are you jealous?

what is this dumb shit....
Greek Mathematics was way more formalized than Babylonian mathematics
Math and science builds off of each other
do you also claim Einstein "stole" from Newton?
>>8627399
He literally figured out precalc thousands of years in advance.
>>8627399
He invented calculus 2000 years before newfag and liebitch. Also, he was a world class genius.

Lines curves rotation all in one graph.
