Mathematics of Pi
Pi is defined as the ratio of the circumference of any circle to its diameter. Pi = circumference/diameter. Pi is constant irrespective of the size of the circle. Pi is classified as an irrational number. Pi denotes relationship between a straight line and a curved line of a circle. Pi = 22/7 approximately = 3.14159 approximately. I had calculated Pi way back in 1980 which I am making public today. _ The students can see that only digit 2 is used in formula where n is the maximum natural number. I will give one example. Suppose, n = 5 then, formula will calculate as follows. _ The calculator will calculate this equation as 3.140331156954 _ As n becomes greater and greater in number, Pi value will become as exact as possible. The process will go on and on indefinitely but n can never become infinity. This is a relationship between […]
