In Khwarizmi's words
"...what is easiest and most useful in arithmetic, such as
men constantly require in cases of inheritance,
legacies, partition, lawsuits, and trade, and in all their
dealings with one another, or where the measuring of
lands, the digging of canals, geometrical
computations, and other objects of various sorts and
kinds are concerned..."

• The Muslims invented the symbol for zero (The
word "cipher" comes from Arabic (صفر
• And they organized the numbers into the
decimal system - base 10
• Additionally, they invented the symbol to
express an unknown quantity, i.e. variables like x

The word "algebra"
comes from "Al-Jabr”,
which is taken from the
title of Khwarizmi's
book“Hisab Al-Jabr wal Muqabala”

In this book
Khwarizmi
explained that the
unknowns in one
side of the equation
is called al-Jabr
and collecting the
knowns in the
other side of the
equation is called
al- Mukabalah Manuscript copy of Hisab Al-Jabr wal
Muqabala

also introduced

Al-Kindi wrote four
volumes on the
number system
“Ketab fi Isti’mal
al-’Adad al-Hindi”
and laid the
foundation of a
large part of
modern arithmetic

This book is a
master- piece on
algebra and has
great importance
in the
development of
algebra

He offered geometric
solutions of cubic
equations and partial
geometric solutions of the
other equations

The well-known sine law
is also stated in this
work: a/sin A = b/sin B =
c/sin C
