Pi Day
Today is Pi day! Pi, of course, is that never-ending number that represents the ratio of a circle’s circumference to its diameter. In non-geek terms that means every circle is 3.14159265… (etc. to infinity) bigger around than it is across. It’s very important to the study of math and specifically geometry. Pi is just fun. It’s an irrational number, fun… Read more »
