# Split from Strange connection between phi and pi

## Recommended Posts

Sir,
I have recently published a paper that reveals THE EXTREMELY PRECISE Pi:Phi CORRELATION, which is firmly premised upon Classical geometric principles.

Could the connection not be named after Planck instead of after Strange? The difference between pi and phi is exactly h .

Pi is transcendental, phi is algebraic.  It is very hard to see a connection.

I watched the video, and it comes down to $$\pi \approx 6\phi^2/5.$$ The RHS is about $$3.141640786$$ so it is not too bad.

An author of a paper on Angle Trisection in last year's issue of the same journal, The Journal of Advances in Mathematics, is convinced that the correct value of $$\pi$$ is exact $$3.14$$. Don't know whether they will clash, or settle on some average as a compromise

The value of pi is not something people decide on.  It simply comes from its definition.

Both were originally defined geometrically.

Pi = 5 arccos (.5 Phi)
