Archimedes found a method for finding good approximations to the ration of the circumference of a circle to the diameter. He did this by inscribing polygons inside the circle and finding how the perimeter changes when the number of sides is doubled.
Archimedes came up with an approximation that is equivalent to saying that pi is between 3 1/7 and 3 10/71. This is quite far from being as accurate as what you showed.

Pi was first computed by the Greek philosopher and mathematician Archimedes.

Archimedes was not the one to discover pi. It was discovered before him in vedic period of ancient India.
Archimedes.
make circles and discover pi
Archimedes first used the symbol PI because he was the first one to discover it so he wanted to investigate about it.

i think Archimedes was the first to discover pi (3.14) or leonhard euler by brichelle xD
He discovered it because he was a very great mathematician of ancient history. He was smart and developed the discovery of Pi to better the world as it is today.
Archimedes made pi more precise
Archimedes was a Greek Scholar, not a discovery.
