Article by : Duane Bong What exactly is Pi? The Greek letter Pi [ ] is used, in mathematics, to symbolise the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter. It is commonly used to calculate the area of circles and the volume of cones and spheres. The value of Pi is a constant and has been determined to be approximately 3.14159. For more accuracy, you can download a value of Pi calculated to 32 thousand decimal places Here Why only approximately? The exact value of Pi [ ] is not given because it is an irrational number. This means that Pi cannot be expressed as a simple fraction or a decimal using a finite number of decimal places. In 1995, mathematicians at the University of Tokyo calculated the value of Pi to 4.2 billion decimal places. This was done using a HITAC super computer and Borwein's 4th order convergent algorithm. This broke the world record at that point in time. Download Super Pi Super Pi is a Windows-based version of the software used to break the world record in 1995. It can calculate the value of Pi [

Your browser doesn't support Java, please upgrade your browser or enable Java In July 2000 I had a strange geometrical dream in which I could see a circle circumscribing a regular polygon. The number of sides of the polygon was increasing so much that after a while it actually became the circle itself. At that point I woke up quite intreagued and drew what I had just seen on a piece of paper so I would remember it when I wake up in the morning.
The next evening it occured to me that this simple visual experience was a way to calculate the value of Pi. Basically the concept was that if there is a link between the perimeter of a circle an Pi then there also was a link between the perimeter of a regular polygon with an infinite number of sides and Pi. The same concept can also be applied using the area of a circle and the area of a regular polygon instead of using their perimeter.
I started with the perimeter method. If you draw a circle of radius r circumscribing a regular polygon of n sides the perimeter of the polygon is 2n r sin(Pi/n). If n=infinity then you get the most accurate value of Pi.

i realize its somewhat silly to consider, but a science fiction novel once referred to changing the value of pi in *a* universe. what explicit effects would this have on the world as we know it? thanks for all your help! steve Steve, you have it exactly backwards. p (Pi) is a ratio - the circumference of a circle divided by its diameter - defined by the geometric properties of the universe one inhabits. In a "flat" or Euclidean universe - named for Euclid of Alexandria , who wrote the Element s , the definitive geometry text for thousands of years - parallel lines never meet or diverge. In such a universe the value of p is 3.14159... (or approximately 3 ). The universe we live in is Euclidean on most scales, in fact on almost every scale we can measure; at the very largest scales it may be non-Euclidean Actually, General Relativity says that the presence of matter curves space, so that any local area of space will be non-Euclidean, even if only a little. But if the total curving effect of matter cancels out, the universe as a whole can be Euclidean. This is equivalent to saying that "the density of the universe is one," just enough to stop the universal expansion at infinite time. For more, see

Did a state legislature once pass a law saying pi equals 3?
Dear Cecil:
In Science magazine a while back an article about the latest attempts to calculate pi to the umpteen zillionth decimal place made a passing reference to a curious Oklahoma law. It said Oklahoma legislators had passed a law making pi equal to 3.0. I also remember Robert Heinlein in one of his novels mentioning that Tennessee had passed a similar law. Did either of these states ever pass such a law? Are they still on the books? What are the penalties if I proclaim that pi equals 3.14159...? Wulf Losee, Andover, Connecticut
Dear Wulf:
Cecil had heard this story too, only the state in question was Kansas, leading him to believe the whole thing was made up by big-city sharpies having a little fun at the expense of the rustics. However, with the help of Joseph Madachy, editor of the Journal of Recreational Mathematics, I've learned the story does have a germ of truth to it.
It happened in Indiana. Although the attempt to legislate pi was ultimately unsuccessful, it did come pretty close. In 1897 Representative T.I. Record of Posen county introduced House Bill #246 in the Indiana House of Representatives. The bill, based on the work of a physician and amateur mathematician named Edward J. Goodwin (Edwin in some accounts), suggests not one but three numbers for pi, among them 3.2, as we shall see. The punishment for unbelievers I have not been able to learn, but I place no credence in the rumor that you had to spend the rest of your natural life in Indiana.

57. #Y26. PI In The Bible
The real value PI = 3.1415926 But given that the value 3 is withinless than 5% error compared to the real value of pi = 3.14159
http://www.yfiles.com/pi.html
PI in the Bible
By Jochen Katz 1 Kings 7:23 He [Solomon] made the Sea of cast metal, circular in shape, measuring ten cubits from rim to rim [diameter = 10] and five cubits high. It took a line of thirty cubits to measure around it. [circumference = 30] Since circumference = PI x diameter as any elementary geometry book will tell you, but the Bible "seemingly" tells us that PI = 3. Since "this is obviously false, therefore the Bible cannot be from God..." is how some people like to reason. But obviously the wisdom of God is greater than the wisdom of man: In this case the word for circumference = "line" ( in Hebrew)
But in this verse "line" is written with an extra letter ( Since Hebrew has no digits, all letters are also numbers, we can take the ratio of (the gematriacal value of) the unusual word form ( ) to the regular word form ( ). Given that the gematrial letter values are = 6, and = 5 we find that: Ratio False number for PI Ratio TOTAL 3 multiplied by The real value: PI = 3.1415926... The difference between 3 x 111/106 and PI is 0.0000832 which is only an error of 0.00026%.
