762 is when the decimal of pi had the earliest occurrence of the string 999999. Pi has been represented by a Greek letter since the mid 19th century.
NO! Of course he didn't make pi. Pi is a constant that describes the ratio between the circumference and diameter of a circle. So he can not have made pi as it is a constant. Also, he didn't discover pi either, the earliest use of this constant is by the egyptians upon building the great pyramid at Giza in which 2*pi was used as the ratio between the height and perimeter of the pyramid. So basically, no.
3.5 3.5(180/pi) = 200.53 degrees 200.53 - 180 = 20.53 20.53(pi/180) = 0.3584

Archimedes (287-212 BC)
The earliest known textually evidenced approximations of PI date from around 1900 BC. They are found in the Egyptian Rhind Papyrus.
The earliest mention of pi comes from over 4000 years ago: the ancient Babylonians calculated the area of a circle by taking 3 times the square of its radius. One Babylonian tablet (ca. 1900-1680 BC) indicates a value of 3.125 for pi.
The earliest known reference dates to 1397

The earliest signs of the use of Pi was in the designs of the Old Kingdom pyramids in Egypt. Many divide the history of Pi into three periods: The ancient period during which Pi was studied in a geometrical manner, the classical era when Pi was fully developed after the creation of calculus in the 17th century and, most recently, the age of digital computers.
