Geometry students measure the circumference and diameter of circles to discover pi. These FHS student replicated what the mathematician, Archimedes, did to discover pi in 210 BC. Many estimates of pi exist, such as 3.14 and 22/7. The never ending, never repeating number is used in calculations such as area and circumference of circles. As a Greek letter, students can be intimidated by pi. Practice and life application will build confidence in the use of such an important number.
