What is Pi?

Pi (Ο€) is a mathematical constant that is the ratio of a circle’s circumference to its diameter. It is approximately equal to 22/ seven, or roughly three point one four. Pi has been calculated to be over one trillion digits past its decimal point and continues infinitely without repetition or pattern.

Who created pi?

The first calculation of Ο€ was done by Archimedes of Syracuse (287–212 BC), one of the greatest mathematicians of the ancient world. If you homeschool, this would be an incredible subject for a report!

But whyis Pi so important?

We can’t think about the advancement of science and technology without considering pi. It has been used every day since its discovery, helping engineers design bridges or even calculating GPS coordinates for roadway maps. Even radio communication or TV shows are based on this magical number!

Pi has been an integral part of our culture since it was discovered thousands of years ago-

Some historians even debate whether pi was used when the ancient Pyramids of Giza were constructed because the structures are nearly perfect geometrically.
