First we need (pi) Is it….. 3.14159265358979323846264338 327950288419716939937510582097 494459230781640628620899862803 482534211706798214808651328230 66470938446095505822172535…..? What is? Is it a number? Click the mouse

How can we be sure that is a bitmore than 3? 3 2 1 For a regular hexagon, the distance all the way round is exactly 3 times the distance straight across the middle. Click to see the paths Click the mouse
And all the way round the circle is a little bit more than all the way round the hexagon. So all the way round the circle is a little bit more than 3 times straight across the middle. Click to see the paths Circumference =× Diameter Click the mouse
Summary Circumference = × Diameter Click the mouse
