Introduction of Pi or :
Pi or is a mathematical constant whose value is the ratio of any circle's
circumference to its diameter in Euclidean space; this is the same value as the ratio of a
circle's area to the square of its radius. It is approximately equal to 3.14159 in the usual
decimal notation (see the table for its representation in some other bases). is one of the
most important mathematical and physical constants: many formulae from mathematics,
science, and engineering involve .
is an irrational number, which means that its value cannot be expressed exactly
as a fraction m/n, where m and n are integers. Consequently, its decimal representation
never ends or repeats. It is also a transcendental number, which means that no finite
sequence of algebraic operations on integers (powers, roots, sums, etc.) can be equal to its
value; proving this was a late achievement in mathematical history and a significant
result of 19th century German mathematics. Throughout the history of mathematics, there
has been much effort to determine more accurately and to understand its nature;
fascination with the number has even carried over into non-mathematical culture.
The Greek letter , often spelled out pi in text, was adopted for the number from
the Greek word for perimeter "", first by William Jones in 1707, and
popularized by Leonhard Euler in 1737. The constant is occasionally also referred to as
the circular constant, Archimedes' constant (not to be confused with an Archimedes
number), or Ludolph's number (from a German mathematician whose efforts to
calculate more of its digits became famous).
Definition of Pi or :
Circumference = diameter
The ratio C/d is constant, regardless of a circle's size. For example, if a circle has twice the
diameter d of another circle it will also have twice the circumference C, preserving the
ratio C/d.
Alternatively can be also defined as the ratio of a circle's area (A) to the area of a
square whose side is equal to the radius.
These definitions depend on results of Euclidean geometry, such as the fact that all
circles are similar. This can be considered a problem when occurs in areas of
mathematics that otherwise do not involve geometry. For this reason, mathematicians
often prefer to define without reference to geometry, instead selecting one of its
analytic properties as a definition. A common choice is to define as twice the smallest
positive x for which cos(x) = 0. The formulas below illustrate other (equivalent)
definitions.
History of Pi or :
The ancient Babylonians calculated the area of a circle by taking 3 times the
square of its radius, which gave a value of pi = 3. One Babylonian tablet (ca. 19001680
BC) indicates a value of 3.125 for pi, which is a closer approximation.
In the Egyptian Rhind Papyrus (ca.1650 BC), there is evidence that the Egyptians
calculated the area of a circle by a formula that gave the approximate value of 3.1605 for
pi.
