where the hell are newton's laws of motion 1, 2 and 3? pi? t=$?
and if you think e=mc^2, it turns out you're
wrong.
Last time I checked, nuclear reactors were pretty stationary - they weren't orbiting the Earth at high speed, and Newton's laws easily fall under calculus.
I don't think Euler's Formula for polyhedra did much to change the world. And, I'm not so sure that the formula listed for chaos theory really did much other than give students of mathematics a more intuitive understanding of how chaotic certain equations may behave. Pythagoras' theorem was certainly known before his time - unless I'm mistaken, there's evidence that even the ancient Babylonians used it. Nonetheless, I don't think it "changed the world." Ditto for the imaginary unit. It was conceived of by one of the Greeks, later re"discovered" by Cardano (I think), but remained mostly useless for a few hundred more years. (Not that it isn't really important these days.) For those complaining about the lack of Newton's Laws, perhaps they fall under the umbrella of calculus? (Since, can't all of Newtonian mechanics be derived using a bit of calculus?) Likewise someone mentioned Kepler's Laws which can be directly derived from Newton's laws.

Of all of the equations, I think Maxwell's equations had the most profound influence on the world.
