The Clay Institute was inspired by a set of twenty-three problems organized by the mathematician David Hilbert in 1900 which were highly influential in driving the progress of mathematics in the twentieth century. [1] The seven selected problems span a number of mathematical fields, namely algebraic geometry, arithmetic geometry, geometric ...
BBC Bitesize, [1] also abbreviated to Bitesize, is the BBC's free online study support resource for school-age people in the United Kingdom. It is designed to aid people in both schoolwork and, for older people, exams .

Unexpected use of template {{1}} - see Template:1 for details. 65`` is an immense number that arose as an upper bound on the answer of a problem in the mathematical field of Ramsey theory. It is much larger than many other large numbers such as Skewes's number and Moser's number , both of which are in turn much larger than a googolplex .
The last of the non-avian dinosaurs died 66 million years ago in the course of the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event, whereas the earliest members of the genus Homo (humans) evolved between 2.3 and 2.4 million years ago. This places a 63-million-year expanse of time between the last non-avian dinosaurs and the earliest humans.
The no-three-in-line problem in discrete geometry asks how many points can be placed in the grid so that no three points lie on the same line. The problem concerns lines of all slopes, not only those aligned with the grid. It was introduced by Henry Dudeney in 1900. Brass, Moser, and Pach call it "one of the oldest and most extensively studied ...
Any two pairs of angles are congruent, [4] which in Euclidean geometry implies that all three angles are congruent: [a] If ∠ BAC is equal in measure to ∠ B'A'C', and ∠ ABC is equal in measure to ∠ A'B'C', then this implies that ∠ ACB is equal in measure to ∠ A'C'B' and the triangles are similar.
