Abstract
Mathematics throughout history has been a continuous cycle of ideas building upon each other, none is more true of this idea than the ancient Arabic's dating back to the 9th century. The ideology of the scientists and culture of that time brought together great minds that were able to uncover new ideas of how to solve quadratics and cubic equations. These ideas continued to inspire mathematicians centuries later.
