May 1998
The article on Scientific American begins with
Of the world’s countless customs
and traditions, perhaps none is
as elegant, nor as beautiful, as
the tradition of sangaku,
Japanese temple geometry.
世界中の数え切れない習慣や伝統の中で、日本独自の幾何学

About 100 formulae
are contained.
Reprinted edition 2005
The problem appeared as one of the
applied problems at the end of the book.
30-ball problem in Sanpo- Jojutsu
The description of the question
As shown in
the figure,
the big ball is
surrounded by 30 small balls.
The small balls touch each other,
and are tangent to the surface of
the inner big ball as well.
If the diameter of
Each small ball is
305 sun,
what is the diameter
of the large ball?
The Answer is 682.000 sun.
Sun (寸): a unit of the old Japanese length

Notice:
We know this problem which was carried in
the 1830 book Sanpo-Kisho by Baba Seitoku
(1801-1860). Accoding to the book, the
problem was written on a mathematical tablet.
In the book, Baba recorded thirty-six
sangaku collected from shrines in Tokyo.
The problem was originally proposed by
Ishikawa Nagamasa, a student of the school
of Baba Seito (1777-1840), who was Seitoku’s
father. It was written on a tablet, which was
hung in 1798 in Gyuto Temple Shrine, Tokyo.
Therefore, it had already existed as
a mathematical problem in 1798.

Trivia
The company name, Nittaku,
is not printed on the ball.
Because this is a custom-made ball
by NIPPON TAKKYU Co.,Ltd.
I think that no-logo balls are beautiful.
I wish that the balls are former size.
My treature
No logo ping-pong balls
This work made with no logo ping-pong balls
was displayed in the lobby of Nittaku Co. Bld.
