wikipedia_2018-4 | Pythagoras , whose dates are commonly given as 569 – 475 BC , used algebraic methods to construct Pythagorean triples , according to Proclus 's commentary on Euclid .

However , when authors such as Plutarch and Cicero attributed the theorem to Pythagoras , they did so in a way which suggests that the attribution was widely known and undoubted . " Whether this formula is rightly attributed to Pythagoras personally , [ ... ] one can safely assume that it belongs to the very oldest period of Pythagorean mathematics . " | wikipedia-2018 |

She displaced 2 @,@ 239 long tons ( 2 @,@ 275 t ) at standard and 3 @,@ 165 long tons ( 3 @,@ 216 t ) at deep load . The Wagner geared steam turbines were designed to produce 70 @,@ 000 metric horsepower ( 51 @,@ 485 kW ; 69 @,@ 042 shp ) which would propel the ship at 36 knots ( 67 km / h ; 41 mph ) .

wikipedia_2018-38 | The French war goal , to occupy Vienna and force the Habsburgs to accept and comply with peace terms established in 1798 , required a double @-@ pronged invasion through northern Italy , which First Consul Napoleon commanded , and through southern Germany , a campaign that fell to Moreau . To secure access into Bavaria and , eventually , to Vienna , the French needed to control the Danube riverway . This was not a new tactic : The stretch of river between Ulm and Neuburg had been the site of major battles of the Thirty Years ' War and War of the Spanish Succession . Between Ulm and Ingolstadt , the Danube grows significantly in volume , making it a wide and swift waterway . The Iller joins the Danube at Ulm , dumping massive amounts of water into the stream ; at Donauwörth , the Lech enters the Danube . Neuburg , the first significant city on the river after Donauwörth , had been the family seat of the princes of Pfalz @-@ Neuburg ; taking it from a princely family of the Holy Roman Empire would be a blow to the morale and prestige of the Habsburgs , whose role it was to protect the small princely domains . Control of the bridges and passages between Ulm and Donauwörth , Neuburg , then Ingolstadt offered an advantage of both transport and prestige . | wikipedia-2018 |

On October 16 , Nicholas transitioned from a sheared , unorganized system to a more organized system , as a result of banding features and improvement in its convective pattern due to lesser amounts of vertical shear and a healthier anticyclone over the storm . Nicholas continued to strengthen , and attained a peak intensity of 70 mph ( 110 km / h ) on October 17 while located 875 miles ( 1 @,@ 410 km ) east of the Leeward Islands .

wikipedia_2018-91 | Bourchier felt unable to accept Queen Elizabeth 's Acts of Settlement and Uniformity , so whilst still serving as rector of Church Langton , he decided to lay low : A list , drawn up around 1569 , of pensioners of the Diocese of Lincoln lists him as " not known whether he lives or not " . This continued until 1570 , when his disobedience was noticed and he was deprived of the rectory . In June 1571 Bourchier sold the rights to his £ 200 a year pension to Sir Thomas Smyth for the sum of £ 900 , and quietly fled abroad , probably to France or Flanders . A wealthy , but very old man , wanted by the state as a " fugitive over the sea , contrary to statute " , Bourchier lived quietly abroad for his remaining years . His date and place of death is unknown , but he is thought to have lived until at least 1577 , when he would have been around 84 years old . | wikipedia-2018 |

wikipedia_2018-99 | The writers planned for the ninth or tenth episode of the fourth season to focus on Miles 's backstory ; however , this was pushed back to the thirteenth episode of the fifth season as a result of the Writers Guild of America strike . The revelation that Miles is Chang 's son was not confirmed until Miles 's flashback episode ; however , this plot point had been speculated by the Internet fan community as early as Miles 's first appearance on the show . Further speculation occurred following the broadcast of the fifth season premiere , in which Chang was seen tending to a baby boy . This influenced the way that it was revealed in the show , as the writers looked for a way to present the information in a way that would both be interesting to those who had not guessed it and not insulting to viewers who had been predicting it . What resulted was Miles and Hurley discussing Chang with Miles plainly saying , " That douche is my dad " before a cut to a commercial break . | wikipedia-2018 |
