Answer:

π is the ratio of the circumference is to diameter

 \pi = \frac{ Circumference} {Diameter}

π was invented by William Jones, a mathematician from Wales, in the 1970s..

But, little do we know that our own legendary mathematician Aryabhatta had mentioned the value of pi in one of his ancient shloks, written in 455 A.D.

The lines were as follows:

“Add 4 to 100, multiply by 8 and add to 62,000. This is approximately the circumference of a circle whose diameter is 20,000.”

 104 \times 8 + 62000= 62832 \\\\ \pi = \frac{ 62382} {20000} = 3.1416

Facts:

  • The symbol for Pi has been in use for over 250 years but calculation of its value dates back to ancient times.
  • The exact value of pi can never be calculated,thus, we can never find the accurate area or circumference of a circle.
  • March 14 is celebrated as pi day because 3.14 are the first digits of pi.
  • The record for reciting the most number of decimal places of Pi was achieved by Rajveer Meena at VIT University, Vellore, India on 21 March 2015. He was able to recite 70,000 decimal places.
  • The first exact formula for π, based on infinite series, was discovered in the 14th century when the Madhava–Leibnitz series was discovered in Indian mathematics.

Answer:

no offense but will u pls mark my answer brainliest

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The symbol for Pi has been in use for over 250 years. The symbol was introduced by William Jones, a Welsh mathematician, in 1706. The symbol was made popular by the mathematician Leonhard Euler.

2. Since the exact value of pi can never be calculated, we can never find the accurate area or circumference of a circle.

3. March 14 or 3/14 is celebrated as pi day because 3.14 are the first digits of pi. Math nerds around the world love celebrating this infinitely long, never-ending number.

4. The record for reciting the most number of decimal places of Pi was achieved by Rajveer Meena at VIT University, Vellore, India on 21 March 2015. He was able to recite 70,000 decimal places. To maintain the sanctity of the record, Rajveer wore a blindfold throughout the duration of his recall, which took an astonishing 10 hours!
