    The number π (/ p aɪ /; spelled out as "pi") is a mathematical constant that is the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter, approximately equal to 3.14159. The number π appears in many formulae across mathematics and physics.

  2. pi, in mathematics, the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter. The symbol π was devised by British mathematician William Jones in 1706 to represent the ratio and was later popularized by Swiss mathematician Leonhard Euler.

  3. Pi (π) is the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter. The value of pi is 3.14159..., an irrational number. Pi is a constant value. That is, the ratio of the circumference to the diameter is the same for all circles.

  4. The Greek letter π (pi) is a geometric constant approximately equal to 3.1416. Its value is equal to the length of any circle's circumference divided by its diameter.

    Pi is a name given to the ratio of the circumference of a circle to the diameter. That means, for any circle, you can divide the circumference (the distance around the circle) by the diameter and always get exactly the same number.

  6. Pi (often represented by the lower-case Greek letter π), one of the most well-known mathematical constants, is the ratio of a circle’s circumference to its diameter. For any circle, the distance around the edge is a little more than three times the distance across.

  7. Pi. Pi is an endless string of numbers. ( π) ( / paɪ /) is a mathematical constant that is the ratio of a circle 's circumference to its diameter. This produces a number, and that number is always the same. However, the number is rather strange. The number starts as 3.141592653589793 and continues without end.

  8. May 17, 1999 · Succinctly, piwhich is written as the Greek letter for p, or π—is the ratio of the circumference of any circle to the diameter of that circle. Regardless of the circle's size, this ratio will...

    π. Draw a circle with a diameter (all the way across the circle) of 1. Then the circumference (all the way around the circle) is 3.14159265... a number known as Pi. Pi (pronounced like "pie") is often written using the greek symbol π. The definition of π is: The Circumference. divided by the Diameter.

  10. \ (\pi\) is the ratio between a circle's circumference and diameter. That is, \ [\dfrac {\text {circumference}} {\text {diameter}}=\pi.\] \ (\pi\) is a fundamental constant in mathematics, especially in geometry, trigonometry, and calculus.
