Who was the mathematician that came up with a special calculus rule for finding limits of quotients in an indeterminable form?
L' Hopital
This says that a polynomial equation has a root between x=1 and x=2 because f(1)=5 and f(2)=-3

He was most well known for his error bound which used the maximum value of the n+1th derivative
Lagrange
This states that a polynomial equation of degree n will have n complex roots
Fundamental Theorem of Algebra
The Rising Factorial is a special factorial notably used in hypergeometric functions. (x)n = x(x+1)(x+2)...(x+n-1). Now, let f(x) = (x-3)x. Find f(5)

Euler
This theorem provides an easy method of raising complex numbers to certain powers using trigonometric functions

What is the name of the operation for repeated EXponentiation?
tetration
Which mathematician had a cult following and a profound hatred for irrational numbers?
Pythagoras
This states that the number of linearly independent columns of a linear transformation added to the dimension of the null space of that linear transformation is equal to the number of columns in the linear transformation.
Rank-Nullity Theorem
The factorial of ALMOST ANY real number can be derived from this function beginning with a Greek alphabet letter
