Pi (π)

Pi (π) is a mathematical constant that represents the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter. It has been represented by the Greek letter π since the mid-18th century and is approximately equal to 3.14159. Pi Day is celebrated on March 14th (3/14) to recognize the constant in mathematics classrooms with activities like memorizing values of pi and fireworks at 1:59 pm. Pi appears in formulas for calculating the circumference, area, surface area, and volume of circles and spheres.

with fireworks at

1:59 pm.

It is celebrated / recognized in
mathematics classrooms everywhere!
Values of pi:
Memorizing the pi:
Applications:

• Definition: π = C/d

Q: Is it the same for all circles?

• Theorems:
C=πd
C = 2π r
A = π r2

Q: In the area, really!!????


Applications:

S = 4 π r2

V = 4/3 π r3

V = 1/3 π r2 h

S = π r √(r2 + h2)
