Establishing a New Value for True Pi Developing Pi to Create a Consistency in Modern Mathematics Establishing a New Value for True Pi Developing Pi to create a consistency in modern mathematics ABSTRACT: The purpose of this document is to offer a new value for Pi, which works far more consistently with the basic integer system or the entire mathematical system than modern Pi offers. To be explored are 3 varieties of Pi. One value which is now known to the author to be a conversion Pi value achieved from the ancient “Pyramid Pi” of [22 /7], modern Pi as is defined by current math science, and the proposed EXACT value of true Pi. The theory uses the volume of a sphere as the formula to execute this author’s methodology of searching for a major coincident value in analysis, then using that to refine the process. This will invariably utilize facets of the “decimal variation system” which is interpreted into the square roots as well. A new fundamental value for True Pi is thus theorized, analyzed, and proposed as superior to modern accepted Pi. INTRODUCTION: In the original Mars Pentad Time Pyramids release, an equation was found using the Mayan Dresden Codex [702], and the value established as the synod of Venus as [585] days of which that value synchronizes within the pyramid system evolved from the tetrahedral grid of the Mars Pentad, which is a total rectangle composed of two square Root [2] rectangles stacked upon eachother to become a [2] by Sqrt. [8] rectangle. This equation found was simple: Dresden Codex [702] divided by [585] Venus synod = [1.2] = [Pi] / by [Phi sq.]. Simply calculated, modern Pi divided by Phi squared = [1. 19998], and as such the perfect value quickly seen to be ideal would be EXACT [1.2], as that being in decimal form or as [12] , [120], [1200], etc., would be a grand perfection within our the mathematical system. [1.2] squared = [1.44], and [12] squared = [144]. Note: The beauty of [1.2] is that it equals exactly [6 /5], or [12 / 10], Nice and clean. Tidy math. The inverse of [1.2] is exactly [0.833333] which is a fundamental construct value within the Mars Pentad tetrahedral grid as Sqrt [0.0833333]. Also to be recognized is that once [12] or [144] is utilized, the ancient Egyptian, and Mayan math systems come into play with exactitude. The Egypt Kemi value of [3600] squared = [12960000], then / by [144] = [90,000] The Mayan Long Count [1872000] has [13] Baktuns of [144,000] days each. So to make this extremely easy, I propose to use the volume of a sphere as a test vehicle to prove that the above equation works: [Pi] divided by [Phi sq.] = [1.2], thus reversing the equation: [1.2] x [Phi] squared = True Pi = [3 .141640788], dependant on the true Phi value used. The value for Phi used here is [1 .6180339 89], rounded from [1 .618033988745~]. NOTE: NOT the value used as ]1 .6180 3399], Thus [Phi] Squared = [2.61803399]. The exact value of Pi used in my analysis is dependant upon the exact value of Phi. No matter what value is applied, if the math follows suit as designed, it works! The Analysis of 3 Forms of Pi and the Volume of a Sphere Imminently I will use an unorthodox methodology developed in a system of searching for “prime coincident numeric sets” for a value that is recognized to have hot quantum possibilities of harmonic cycle predominance within mathematics in general or in the tetrahedral and pentagonal geometries, or in the ancient math systems of the Egyptians and the Meso Americans such as the Mayans. The first form of Pi was discovered as a conversion product of ancient values for Pi and the Saturn [378] synod, since the Saturnian cosmology has been proven to a major underlying construct in Egyptian pyramid constructs. [see prior pdf on Ancient Pi] Ancient Pi = [aPi] = [22 / 7] = [3 .142857 142857 142857] to infinity. The beauty of this value is that when separating the [0.142857~], it’s inverse is exactly [7], and [0.142857~] x Saturn synod [378] = exactly [54], and the sin of [54] degrees, is [Phi / 2]. This author in very recent releases of this continuing investigation also found a unique constant within the Egyptian system in which non-decimalized values of ancient Phi = [aPhi] = [1 .62] and the tetrahedral angle [19 .5] were unified into the Khufu constant [KhC]: [195] / [162] = [1 .203 703 703 703] to infinity. Notice that the Saturn synod [378] times the [KhC] = exactly [455], and [455] is a Pascal’s triangle number. [see prior pdf on Ancient Pi]. So the conversion formula was found that the Egyptians could have used to harmonically cycle convert from ancient Pi = [22 / 7] to modern Pi as is accepted. That formula is: [aPi] / by [KhC] = [2 .610989012], then x [378] Saturn synod = [986. 9538465]. The square root of [986. 9538465] = [31 .41582 1582 1582 1582] to infinity. Thus, using modern Pi times Ten = [31 .4159 2654~], clearly shows a correlative value! Also the beauty of this new form of Pi as [3 .14 1582 1582 1582], is that just like the ancient Pi, its replicating decimal sequence can be utilized as such: Take the arctangent of [0 .1582 1582 1582] = [8 .990575] degrees, And then the opposite angle is exactly [81 .00] degrees, with [81] being [9] squared, conforming nicely to the Egyptian numerologies! So our three values are: The ancient Egyptian conversion product of [3 .14 1582 1582 1582~], the modern math science accepted value of [3 .141592654~], the perfect value achieved in the equation of [3 .141640788]. Volume of a Sphere is 4/3[Pi] x Radius cubed. The target radius is thus [2] units. The “prime coincident numeric set search” is applied to find a distinct numeric “catalyst”. The author uses an experimental approach of using Phi = [1 .618033989] In the first exercise we will use the ancient conversion Pi value. Thus: [4/3] x [3 .141582 1582~] x [8] = [33 .1020968], then take the square root of value [33 .1020968] = [5 .788800366] = [x]. Now, [x] / by [Phi], [x] / by [1 .618033989] = Sqrt. [12 .79976112], and that is a major coincident value, by virtue of the [12 .79976111] value within the square root existing, being so excrutiatingly close to [12 .8], as [128] = [2] x [64], and [64] = [8] squared, of which [8] was our radius cubed. Though this methodology may seem somewhat odd, be patient and let it all play out. So our value is not perfect, we want exact [12 .8] as a function of [128]. Now to check modern [Pi] in the same process: Radius = [2] 4/3[Pi] x [8] = [33 .1032163], then take square root = [5 .788810036] = [x] Now, [x] / by [Phi], [x] / by [1 .618033989] = Sqrt. [12 .79980388], and that is the major coincident value, by virtue of the [12 .7998~] being so excrutiatingly close to [12 .8], as [128] = [2] x [64], and [64] = [8] squared, which was out radius cubed. Now we try the value achieved from the equation: [Pi] / by [Phi sq.] = [1.2], because [1.2] is an ideal value of simplicity and perfectly [12]. Thus:[1.2] x [2.61803399] = [3 .141640788], as True Pi. Or as [2.6180339 89], = [3.141640787] This time I shall just use that direct value of Pi, right into the direct formula of the volume of a sphere. So operating from the Sqrt. [12.8] desired value of ‘prime coincidence numeric set”, by virtue of [12.8] decimally being a variation of [128] or [2] x [8]sq. We go in reverse: Sqrt [12.8] = [3.577708764], then that value times [1 .618033989] = [5.788854383] Then, Volume of Sphere is 4/3[Pi] x radius cubed. Thus,’ [Pi] = [5.788854383] squared, then divided by 4/3[r]cubed. [Pi] = [33 .51083507] then divided by 4/3[r]cubed. [33 .51083507] divided by [8] = [4 .188854383], then / by [4/3] = [3 .141640788] [1.2] x [2.618033993] = [3 .141640788], as True Pi. You calculator will vary a bit, often in reversal of equations The value gains or loses a microcosmic [0 .000000001]. One needs a calculator that can take Phi to 100 decimal placings, Such that the exact value should be very very close to: [3 .141640788] as True Pi., or if using [Phi sq.] as [2.6180339 89] = [3.141640787]. True Pi / [Phi sq] = [1.2] Phi sq. / True Pi = [0.83333333~] = [585] Venus synod / by [Dresden Codex [702]. True Pi follows the Formula [Pi] / by [Phi sq.] = [1.2], And [1.2] = [6 / 5], or [0.83333333] = [5 /6] 0r [10 / 12]. So do you see how the beauty of this new Pi fits perfectly now, within our number system? There is a variance in exactitude with cheap calculators between True Pi = [3 .141640788], and/or [3 .1416 0787], dependant on exact Phi value used. Therefore using [0.83333333] x [3 .141640787] = [2 .618033988] .

For example, p2 p3 = p6. An important question · for the study of complex variables is this: will this product law be valid when a and b are complex numbers? The great Leonard Euler discussed some aspects of this question in his 1770 book Elements of Algebra, which was written as a textbook [Euler, 1770]. However, some of his statements drew criticism [Martinez, 2007], as we shall see in the next section. 2 Euler’sIntroduction to Imaginary Numbers In the following passage with excerpts from Sections 139—148of Chapter XIII, entitled Of Impossible or Imaginary Quantities, Euler meant the quantity a to be a positive number. 1111111111111111111111111111111111111111 The squares of numbers, negative as well as positive, are always positive. ...To extract the root of a negative number, a great diffi culty arises; since there is no assignable number, the square of which would be a negative quantity. Suppose, for example, that we wished to extract the root of 4; we here require such as number as, when multiplied by itself, would produce 4; now, this number is neither +2 nor 2, because the square both of 2 and of 2 is +4, and not 4.

  • The Geometry of René Descartes
    BOOK FIRST The Geometry of René Descartes BOOK I PROBLEMS THE CONSTRUCTION OF WHICH REQUIRES ONLY STRAIGHT LINES AND CIRCLES ANY problem in geometry can easily be reduced to such terms that a knowledge of the lengths of certain straight lines is sufficient for its construction.1 Just as arithmetic consists of only four or five operations, namely, addition, subtraction, multiplication, division and the extraction of roots, which may be considered a kind of division, so in geometry, to find required lines it is merely necessary to add or subtract ther lines; or else, taking one line which I shall call unity in order to relate it as closely as possible to numbers,2 and which can in general be chosen arbitrarily, and having given two other lines, to find a fourth line which shall be to one of the given lines as the other is to unity (which is the same as multiplication) ; or, again, to find a fourth line which is to one of the given lines as unity is to the other (which is equivalent to division) ; or, finally, to find one, two, or several mean proportionals between unity and some other line (which is the same as extracting the square root, cube root, etc., of the given line.3 And I shall not hesitate to introduce these arithmetical terms into geometry, for the sake of greater clearness. For example, let AB be taken as unity, and let it be required to multiply BD by BC. I have only to join the points A and C, and draw DE parallel to CA ; then BE is the product of BD and BC.

    A Quartically Convergent Square Root Algorithm: An Exercise in Forensic Paleo-Mathematics David H Bailey, Lawrence Berkeley National Lab, USA DHB’s website: http://crd.lbl.gov/~dhbailey! Collaborator: Jonathan M. Borwein, University of Newcastle, Australia 1 A quartically convergent algorithm for Pi: Jon and Peter Borwein’s first “big” result In 1985, Jonathan and Peter Borwein published a “quartically convergent” algorithm for π. “Quartically convergent” means that each iteration approximately quadruples the number of correct digits (provided all iterations are performed with full precision): Set a0 = 6 - sqrt[2], and y0 = sqrt[2] - 1. Then iterate: 1 (1 y4)1/4 y = − − k k+1 1+(1 y4)1/4 − k a = a (1 + y )4 22k+3y (1 + y + y2 ) k+1 k k+1 − k+1 k+1 k+1 Then ak, converge quartically to 1/π. This algorithm, together with the Salamin-Brent scheme, has been employed in numerous computations of π. Both this and the Salamin-Brent scheme are based on the arithmetic-geometric mean and some ideas due to Gauss, but evidently he (nor anyone else until 1976) ever saw the connection to computation. Perhaps no one in the pre-computer age was accustomed to an “iterative” algorithm? Ref: J. M. Borwein and P. B.

  • The Ordered Distribution of Natural Numbers on the Square Root Spiral
    The Ordered Distribution of Natural Numbers on the Square Root Spiral - Harry K. Hahn - Ludwig-Erhard-Str. 10 D-76275 Et Germanytlingen, Germany ------------------------------ mathematical analysis by - Kay Schoenberger - Humboldt-University Berlin ----------------------------- 20. June 2007 Abstract : Natural numbers divisible by the same prime factor lie on defined spiral graphs which are running through the “Square Root Spiral“ ( also named as “Spiral of Theodorus” or “Wurzel Spirale“ or “Einstein Spiral” ). Prime Numbers also clearly accumulate on such spiral graphs. And the square numbers 4, 9, 16, 25, 36 … form a highly three-symmetrical system of three spiral graphs, which divide the square-root-spiral into three equal areas. A mathematical analysis shows that these spiral graphs are defined by quadratic polynomials. The Square Root Spiral is a geometrical structure which is based on the three basic constants: 1, sqrt2 and π (pi) , and the continuous application of the Pythagorean Theorem of the right angled triangle. Fibonacci number sequences also play a part in the structure of the Square Root Spiral. Fibonacci Numbers divide the Square Root Spiral into areas and angle sectors with constant proportions. These proportions are linked to the “golden mean” ( golden section ), which behaves as a self-avoiding-walk- constant in the lattice-like structure of the square root spiral.

The Square Root of i While Girolamo Cardano was working on solving cubic and quadratic equations in 1539, he encountered some formulas that involved square roots of negative numbers. In 1545 Cardano published Ars Magna, where he presents the first recorded calculations that involve complex numbers. Then in 1572, Rafael Bombelli published the first three parts of his Algebra. He is known as the inventor of complex numbers, because he identifies some rules for working with them. Bombelli also shows how complex numbers are very important and useful. From Bombelli’s list of rules for adding, subtracting and multiplying the complex numbers, he was able to analyze the cubic equations that Cardano was trying to solve in his paper Ars Magna. Bombelli was able to use his rules for operations with complex numbers to solve the cubic equations that produced an expression that contained a square root of a negative number.

  • History of Math Timeline Cards
    History of Math Timeline Cards Here’s how to make the cards: 1. Print the cards (color is nice, but not required). Each row has three columns. The first two columns are the front and back of the card. The last row is the source of the image, which is just FYI. 2. Cut out the first two columns of each row, then fold the card on the vertical column line so that it has a front and back. Just discard the last column of the card, unless you want to fold it onto the inside of the card. Note: I suggest removing some of the cards to tailor the topics to the knowledge level of your class. For example, my Geometry students may not yet know about trigonometry, so I would remove cards related to trigonometry for that class. 3. Put each card in a card protector (I bought these on Amazon). If you can see the date on the back of the card through the card protector, just slip a piece of cardboard (or these from Amazon) in the card protector.
