Dinostratus was an ancient Greek mathematician and astronomer who lived around the 4th century BCE. He is often associated with the field of mathematics and geometry, particularly regarding the properties of the circle and the construction of geometric figures. One of the key contributions attributed to Dinostratus is his work on the quadrature of the circle, which involves finding a square with an area equal to that of a given circle.
