Discovering Pi
Discovering Pi
Description:
Discovering Pi is an activity in which students can compare the circumference and diameter of a circle in order to see that pi is a constant value, not some arbitrary invention. Many students tend to memorize, without understanding, formulas that we use in geometry or other mathematic areas. This activity allows students to discover why pi works in solving problems dealing with finding circumference.
