Abstract

The paper aims to show that (π) has an exact value 17-8√3. The derivation of this value is supported by several geometrical constructions, arithmetic calculations and use of some simple algebraic formulae. There are various values of π that have been discussed in ancient literature. Vedic texts hinted at π, and Aryabhata’s 3.1416 was among the most precise in antiquity. Early cultures often used whole-number ratios for convenience in construction, ritual or symbolic texts weren’t focused on mathematical precision. This paper deals with the new value of π and can be proved using the geometric constructions and algebraic formulas.
