Abstract: The Sulba Sutras, ancient Indian texts dating back to 800-500 BCE, primarily used as guidance for building Vedic altars with precise geometrical configurations. Their contributions to mathematics, particularly geometry, are significant and underestimated. The Sulba Sutras contain fundamental geometrical concepts while also demonstrating ancient Indian mathematicians' inventive problem-solving approaches. This research paper examines the mathematical contributions of the Sulba Sutra tradition and how they relate to modern mathematical theory. It seeks to understand the innovative concepts that underpin these old techniques, as well as their impact on problem-solving methodologies.
