The only 'pie' in mathematics, is the graphical circle. Otherwise 'Pie' is the foodstuff that you eat, e.g., Apple Pie, Meat pie.

However, there is a 'pi' in mathematics; note the spelling.

'pi' in mathematics is the constant of direct proportion between a circle's circumference and its diameter.

'pi' in mathematics is an irrational number, which is 3.141592.... .

An irrational number is one were the decimals go to infinity and there is no regular order in the decimal digits.

In school when learning circle calculations, you are probably given ' pi = 3.14 ' or 'pi = 3.1416 . However these values are only approximations.

The algebraic equation for circles is

C = pid or C = 2pi*r .

Area of a circle is

A = pi *r^(2)

NB 'pi' is the small/lower case Classical Greek letter 'p' , and means 'proportion'.

Where was pie discovered?

Pie wasn't discovered it was invented by an ancient baker. It was needed to compute monetary amounts and keep dunces like little Jack Horner busy.
