Joseph Francis Alward Bible skeptics allege that the writer of 1 Kings couldn't possibly have been inspired because he evidently believed that the value of pi was 3, not the more nearly correct value of 3.14, but a closer look reveals that if one allows for reasonable "round-off" by the Bible writers, there is no error. E-Mail Alward Home Page The circumference of a circle is obtained by multiplying pi times the diameter. Bible skeptics allege that the writer of 1 Kings couldn't possibly have been inspired because he evidently believed that the value of pi was 3, not the more nearly correct value of 3.14. As evidence, the skeptics point to 1 Kings 7:23 in which the writer says that circumference of Solomon's man-made circular pond was 30 cubits and its diameter was 10 cubits: "He [Solomon] made the Sea of cast metal, circular in shape, measuring ten cubits from rim to rim and five cubits high. It took a line of thirty cubits to measure around it." However, if the circumference of the pond really was 30 cubits, the diameter would have to be 9.549 cubits, approximately. Rounded to the nearest integer, the diameter is 10 cubits, which is close enough, even for a god who could have given the value of pi to at least 5.1 billion digits [2]assuming this god was only interested in conveying information about Solomon's bath.

Education Determining the Value of Pi Adjust font-size: Published August 31, 2008 by: Doctorn View Profile Follow Add to Favorites ... Irrational Numbers Pi is a mathematical constant which represents the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter and it is used in many mathematical calculations in science, mathematics, and engineering. It is approximately equal to 3.14159. Pi is an irrational number (It cannot be expressed as a fraction) and consequently its decimal representation never ends or repeats and it is a transcendental number (It has no known math operation or sequence that can produce it). A great deal of effort has been made to determine it more accurately. It can also represented by a Greek letter. Students can easily remember the value of pi to 6 decimal places if they simply remember the sentence: "I wish I could translate pi." They do have to remember that it starts with the number "3" NOTE: The graphic uses the sentence "I wish I could remember pi" which is an estimate to six decimal places."

Legislating the Value of Pi From Scienticity Jump to: navigation search The greek letter pi is the mathematical symbol used to represent the number that is the ratio of the circumference of a circle to the length of the circle's diameter. The number is known to be an irrational number , approximated by the fraction "22/7", or by the decimal "3.1415926536". Pi , no doubt because of its fundamental place in geometry and the irritation of its irrationality, has inspired a number of mystics and charlatans throughout history, particularly through vain efforts to "square the circle". Proof in 1882 that the task was impossible apparently did as little to quench interest in the ancient conundrum as thermodynamics did to halt the search for perpetual-motion machines. Contents Indiana House Bill #246 Legacy Notes Sources Indiana House Bill #246 The most famous and only known – case of a state legislature in the US attempting to create by law a new value for pi was that of Indiana in 1897; it has become legendary, and the basis of myth and hoax. Although it has come to represent the occasional ignorance of innumerate legislators, it was not so obviously a bad idea at the time. The bill was introduced to the house by legislator Mr. Record, but it was reported that "Mr. Record knows nothing of the bill with the exception that he introduced it by request of Dr. Edwin Goodwin of Posey County, who is the author of the demonstration."

Elias' Pi Page Read Pi Why is Pi always written in the decimal number system? It would be even more beautiful if it was written in the simplest of all number systems, the binary. Read through the 32768 first bits of binary Pi! Listen to Pi There is actually an infinite amount of information hidden in pi, so it must be possible to find any information in it if you just have enough time and computing power. For example, has anyone ever tried to let a computer treat the binary digits of pi as a piece of digitized sound? Maybe the voice of God is sampled into pi, or a piece of music, or just white noise. It would be disappointing to discover that pi is nothing more than just the ultimate white noise generator! Listen to the 65536 first bits of binary Pi!

Anytime you find yourself working with circles, arcs, pendulums (which swing through an arc), etc. you find pi popping up. We have run into pi when looking at gears spherical helium balloons and pendulum clocks . But you also find it in many unexpected places for reasons that seem to have nothing at all to do with circles. On one level pi is simple: It is the ratio of a circle's circumference divided by its diameter. This ratio, for any circle, is always the same - 3.14 or so. You can prove this to yourself with a circle, a piece of tape and a ruler. Look around your house and find something circular: a jar lid, a CD, a plate - whatever you can find that is circular, the bigger the better. Measure its diameter (the width across the center of circle) with the ruler. Now wrap a piece of tape around around the circle and cut or mark the tape so that it is exactly as long as the outer edge (the circumference) of the circle you are measuring. Measure the piece of tape. With a calculator divide the length of the tape by the diameter you measured for the circle. The answer you will get, if you have measured accurately, is always 3.14.

Links Historians estimate that by 2000 B.C. humans had noticed that the ratio of circumference to diameter was the same for all circles. This discovery hinged on the idea of proportion - in this case humans noticed that if you double the distance "across" a circle, then you double the distance "around" it. In today's algebraic notation this implied the formula where Pi was constant. (It wasn't until 1706 that this notation, using the Greek letter seen in the above equation - often written Pi and pronounced like the English 'pie' - was introduced by William Jones). The significance of this discovery is clear: Circles are everywhere - in the sun, the moon, the pupils of our eyes, the most basic religious rituals and the earliest man-made structures. Achieving a greater mathematical understanding of Pi would lead to scientific and technological advances that would further the development of civilization, as well as creating some very interesting problems in pure mathematics. But one problem remained - what is the numerical value of Pi?

...and continuing updates Why "The story of pi reflects the most seminal, the most serious and sometimes the silliest aspects of mathematics. A surprising amount of the most important mathematics and a significant number of the most important mathematicians have contributed to its unfolding directly or otherwise. Pi is one of the few concepts in mathematics whose mention evokes a response of recognition and interest in those not concerned professionally with the subject. It has been a part of human culture and the educated imagination for more than twenty five hundred years. The computation of Pi is virtually the only topic from the most ancient stratum of mathematics that is still of serious interest to modern mathematical research. And to pursue this topic as it developed throughout the millennia is to follow a thread through the history of mathematics that winds through geometry, analysis and special functions, numerical analysis, algebra and number theory. It offers a subject which provides mathematicians with examples of many current mathematical techniques as well as a palpable sense of their historical development." The above passage is taken from the introduction to "Pi : A Source Book" by L. Berggren, J. Borwein and P. Borwein. It is a large collection of papers on pi and will appear with Springer-Verlag sometime in 1997. Much additional material is available in the 1986 Wiley volume
