Investigations Geometry Circles ... Additional Investigations It is possible to approximate pi with a rational number. Let's play a game where you try to approximate pi to 4 decimal places using an expression of integers (decimals not allowed) with a fraction, exponent, or combination of the two.
The goal will be to get the lowest score possible. Here's how you keep score: +1 for each digit used, and +0.2 for each ten-thousandth that you are away from the actual value of pi (= 3.1416, to the nearest 4 decimal places.)
For example, 314/100 is equal to 3.14; your score would be +6 for using six digits and +3.2 for being 16 ten-thousandths away from pi, giving a total of +9.2. Another example is ; your score would be +3 for using three digits and +37.8 for being 189 ten-thousandths away from pi.
What is the lowest score you can find?

A circle, because of that transcendental number pi , cannot be described with the same degree of accuracy as the physical square. The circle is yin It is a good shape to do all kinds of spiritual activities in. It is good for groups to work in circles. There are many examples of sacred spaces that are circular. Ring of Brodgar, Mainland Orkney. Most stone rings in the British isles are not actually circular. Dr Alexander Thom proved this with his pioneering work in the sixties. Some of the true circles are Merry Maidens in Cornwall, Stonehenge and the Ring of Brodgar.

How to calculate PI
posted on: 8/28/2002 2:59:16 PM Hello. A day or two ago I read (i think on this fourm) that some guys calulated PI to a million decimal places or something. This has me thinking, how on earth was this done? I don't really understand PI, just that its a ratio between the circumfrence and the diameter of a circle (in fact i dont even know if thats right
so how was it done? how did they calculate PI to so many places? CindyM

37. SchoolOnLine.Org - Math/Geometry: What Is Pi?
What is pi? (sounds like pie ) pi is the answer to the questionWhat is the distance around a circle? What is the value of pi?
http://www.schoolonline.org/Math/Geometry/pi.html
What is Pi?
(sounds like "pie")
Pi is the answer to the question: What is the distance around a circle?
d
symbolizes the distance across the circle.
d multiplied by PI equals the distance around the circle.
The value of PI is about 3.14159.
If you took enough string to measure around the circle exactly one time, the length of the string would be approximately d x 3.14159
PI is used to symbolize the measurement of the distance around a circle.
What is the value of Pi?
The value of PI is about 3.14, or a little more than 3.
Pi has been figured out to over 50 decimal places. However, most accurate measurements can be handily made with just a few decimals places, such as 3.1415926.
The actual number is unknown, because Pi is not a rational number
Pi is the 16th letter of the Greek Alphabet.
Main fact:
If you take the distance across a circle and multiply it by PI, you get the distance around the circle.
Definitions
The distance across a circle is called the diameter The distance around a circle is called the circumference The diameter multiplied by Pi equals the circumference

Space Figure
A space figure or three-dimensional figure is a figure that has depth in addition to width and height. Everyday objects such as a tennis ball, a box, a bicycle, and a redwood tree are all examples of space figures. Some common simple space figures include cubes, spheres, cylinders, prisms, cones, and pyramids. A space figure having all flat faces is called a polyhedron. A cube and a pyramid are both polyhedrons; a sphere, cylinder, and cone are not.
Cross-Section
A cross-section of a space figure is the shape of a particular two-dimensional "slice" of a space figure. Example: The circle on the right is a cross-section of the cylinder on the left. The triangle on the right is a cross-section of the cube on the left.
Volume
Volume is a measure of how much space a space figure takes up. Volume is used to measure a space figure just as area is used to measure a plane figure. The volume of a cube is the cube of the length of one of its sides. The volume of a box is the product of its length, width, and height.

Area of a Circle. The area of a circle is pi × r 2 or pi × r × r, where r is thelength of its radius. pi is a number that is approximately 3.14159. Example

Area
The area of a figure measures the size of the region enclosed by the figure. This is usually expressed in terms of some square unit. A few examples of the units used are square meters, square centimeters, square inches, or square kilometers.
Area of a Square
If l is the side-length of a square, the area of the square is l or l l Example: What is the area of a square having side-length 3.4?
Area of a Rectangle
The area of a rectangle is the product of its width and length. Example: What is the area of a rectangle having a length of 6 and a width of 2.2?
Area of a Parallelogram
The area of a parallelogram is b h , where b is the length of the base of the parallelogram, and h is the corresponding height. To picture this, consider the parallelogram below: We can picture "cutting off" a triangle from one side and "pasting" it onto the other side to form a rectangle with side-lengths
