Forging The Golden Pentagon
In this article we will be looking at how the simple regular pentagon is in fact recursively resonant with Φ (Phi), the Golden Ratio. This article
In this article we will be looking at how the simple regular pentagon is in fact recursively resonant with Φ (Phi), the Golden Ratio. This article
In this article we will be looking at the use of Φ(Phi), or rather a very specific approximation of it, in the construction of this
Since ancient times, Venus, the sacred feminine, the primordial Goddess, has been associated with the pentagram as a representation of divine harmony and proportion. This
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT: This was recently uncovered by John Arioni and he shared it on the CutTheKnotMath facebook page. Further discussion, proof, and many more interesting examples
The Taijitu (Yin-Yang) is a simple yet profound Taoist symbol. We will discuss this in later articles. In this article we will show you how
So, we finished off with the Golden Triangle an earlier article. In this we will continue to explore the self-similar properties of this triangle in
Now that we have the Golden Rectangle to hand, we can start exploring other geometric shapes with similar properties. One of the most obvious examples
Now that we have the Golden Rectangle to hand it is trivial to create an approximation of the Golden Spiral. This can be done by
To construct and understand the Golden Rectangle it is necessary to understand a few basic concepts. These are the Fibonacci sequence and Φ (Phi), also known as the
