Fermat's principleSnell's law always reflects light's quickest path between P and Q. Fermat's principle in optics states: The actual path between two points taken by a beam of light is the one which is traversed in the least time. This principle was first stated by Pierre	Fermat's last theoremFermat's last theorem (sometimes abbreviated as FLT and also called Fermat's great theorem is one of the most famous theorems in the history of mathematics. It states that: :There are no positive natural numbers a b and c such that where n is a natural nu	Fermat's little theoremFermat's little theorem states that if p is a prime number, then for any integer a : This means that if you take some number a multiply it by itself p times and subtract a the result is divisible by p (see modular arithmetic). It is often stated in the fo
Fermat numberIn mathematics, a Fermat number named after Pierre de Fermat who first studied them, is a positive integer of the form : where n is a nonnegative integer. The first eight Fermat numbers are (sequence in OEIS): F 21 + 1 3 F 22 + 1 5 F 24 + 1 17 F 28 + 1 25	Fermat primality testThe Fermat primality test is a probabalistic test to determine if a number is composite or probably prime. Concept Fermat's little theorem states that if p is prime and , then :. If we want to test if n is prime, then we can pick random a s in the interva	Fermat's spiralFermat's spiral (also known as a parabolic spiral) follows the equation : It is a type of Archimedean spiral.
