초록

From the mid 17th century, Joseon mathematics had a new beginning and developedalong two directions, namely the traditional mathematics and one influencedby western mathematics. A great Joseon mathematician if not the greatest, HongJeongHa was able to complete the Song–Yuan mathematics in his book GuIlJibbased on his studies of merely Suanxue Qimeng, YangHui Suanfa and Suanfa Tongzong. Although Hong JeongHa did not deal with the systems of equations of higherdegrees and general systems of linear congruences, he had the more advanced theoriesof right triangles and equations together with the number theory. The purposeof this paper is to show that Hong was able to realize the completion throughhis perfect understanding of mathematical structures.
