Question

this chart highlights significant contributions made by muslim societies.
contributions from muslim societies in the early 1000s ce
developed algebraic formulas
arranged the modern decimal system
made improvements to simplify trigonometry
designed and built astronomical instruments like the astrolabe
developed methods to calculate the position of celestial objects
based on this chart, which statement best describes the significance of muslim scholars in the early 1000s ce?
○ they had little impact on learning in the modern age.
○ they were mainly concerned with advancements in trade and agriculture.
○ they focused on religious studies and ignored scientific progress.
○ they made important advancements in mathematics that influenced later civilizations.

Explanation:

The chart shows Muslim scholars' contributions in math (algebraic formulas, decimal system, trigonometry) and science (astronomical instruments, celestial object calculation). The option "They made important advancements in mathematics that influenced later civilizations" matches, as their math contributions (like algebra, decimal system) impacted future societies. Other options are incorrect: they had significant impact (so first is wrong), focused on trade/agriculture (chart shows science/math, so third wrong), and they advanced science (so second wrong).

Answer:

They made important advancements in mathematics that influenced later civilizations.
