HAPPY PI DAY


HAPPY PI DAY! WHAT AN IRRATIONAL DAY!!!!
BE IRRATIONAL.. AND TRANSCENDENTAL
... here are the facts:
Today we celebrate Π (Pi), a very cool number. Π is a comparison between the measurements of the circumference to the diameter of a circle—any circle.
Pi is an IRRATIONAL number. That means it has no pattern and never terminates.
It CANNOT be written as a fraction with an integer in the numerator and denominator.

We use 3.14 and 22/7 as APPROXIMATIONS of pi.

These are not the exact values. The only symbol that tells the exact value is Π. Pi is a ratio, a comparison between two numbers.

You will be able to discover many interesting facts about pi—even finding it on your own.
