Work that brain #2

Archimedes: "Give me a place to stand, and I will move the earth."


What do you call an empty parrot cage?
Polygon.

One of my favorite mathematicians is Archimedes:
Archimedes of Syracuse lived around the year 250 BC and among other things, developed a method for determining the volume of objects with irregular shapes.

Look up some mathematicians and tell me a little about their history and what they contributed to the math world!
