Pythagoras was a theory developed by a scientist who was greek and dutched all day long
If you wrap the length of the radius of a circle around the perimeter (circumference) Pi times you come to the point diametrically opposite from where you started (180°) Half of that (Pi/2) is 90° around the the circle.
Pi is the 16th letter of the Greek alphabet
'pi' is the lower case letter 'p' from the Classical Greek Alphabet. It refers to 'proportion, because for all circles, however, large of small , the constant of proportion (p/pi) between the circumference and the diameter is 3.141592.... , which is an irrational number, which means it cannot be converted to a ratio/fraction. Casually, the decimals recur to infinity and there is no regular order in the decimal digits. Algebraically, Circumference is directly proportional to diameter. Reduced to letters C is directly proportional to d. This is then equated with a constant(k) C = k*d k = C/d From ancient times the 'k' was substituted by 'pi/p' as it refers to 'proportion'. Hence we have pi = C/d or C = pi*d 'd' being the length of two(2) radii is substitutied again as C = 2pir In school/college, when learning about circle geometry, you will probably be given pi = 3.14, 3.1416 or 22/7 . These figures are only APPROXIMATIONS, but are given for ease of learning.
PI the 16th greek letter is the circumference divided by the diameter of a circle. For example 40.5/12.89 = PI.
Because pi = 0.5*tau
yes pi is used around the world today
3.14 is short for pi. Pi can go on forever and ever. It's just a rounded number of pi to make things easier to understand.
this sequence appears in pi around 1000 digits into it
Any circle's circumference divided by its diameter has a value of pi
