Pi is a mathematical constant. It is irrational; it cannot be expressed as a terminating or repeating decimal, or as a fraction with the numerator and denominator both integers. It is approximately 3.1415926..... The decimal continues forever, never repeating itself. The value is represented by the greek letter pi. The basic use of Pi is to calculate the circumference of a circle (C = pi * diameter) and the area of a circle (A = Pi * radius^2). There are many other uses for Pi in higher math.
In the Night at the Museum 2, Pi was supposedly the figure at the "heart of the pyramid". However, there is no logical relationship between pyramids and Pi. Furthermore, when the Einstein bobbleheads said Pi was "3.1415926, to be exact", this is incorrect. Pi has no exact decimal value because it is irrational.
Exactly... Pi was found when mathematicians tried to figure out the relationship between the diameter (or radius [2*radius=diameter]) of a circle and the lenght of circumreference of the circle. They found out, that the there is a constant which if it's multiplied by the diameter equals the lenght of circumreference of the circle (diameter*Pi=lenghtOfCircumreference ). Therefore
Pi=lenghtOfCircumreferenceOfAnyCircle/diameterOfThatCircle.
There are no circles in a piramid and therefore it does not make sense.

You're both wrong about the pyramid part. Mathematicians and scientists since the mid 1800's have been proposing relationships between the Great Pyramid and pi. It has to do with ratios of perimeter to height (similar to circumference and diameter) and circumscribed spheres around the pyramid. There are also possible mathematical connections between these relationships and the circumference and diameter of the earth (which isn't a perfect sphere of course) and the location of the pyramid on the earth.
They may be coincidences, but there are quite a few of them. Try reading this page:
