    Your "chords" are drawn across arbitrary lines and even if this worked it would be a ridiculously impractical method of calculating the circumference of a circle, which is simply c = πd. 

    First it is C ≠ πd. It is simplifide as C ≈ πd. c = πd.  is a lie.......I have been given no reason to believe a lie is neccessary.

    No, the proper chords are not arbitrary lines they are precisely and proportional which is required for a ratio. The method of Pi is not invalid it is the chord used that is the mathematical error...

    Why would I draw 4 lines when I only need 1?
    You could then contribute to improve the accuracy of mathmatics.

    You honestly just write the most utterly ridiculous and irrational things imaginable.

    John, stop writing nonsense for once in your life. The circumference of a circle is equal to pi multiplied by diameter, so the correct equation is c = πd. The ≠ means the opposite of = (i.e. not equal to).

    And the correct word is simplified, not simplifide. The system will alert you when you make a spelling error by underlining your word with a big red line.

    No, the proper chords are not arbitrary lines

    That is exactly what they are. Since they don't pass through the centre there is no way to accurately measure their placement.

  • Oh John, you poor confused soul. This is your other debate. Not the one about proving Einstein wrong.

    It's time to put your crayons away and have a nice nap, good buddy.

    It is a fine line between details.......Where Pi is the mathematical proof to base science method on we have the identical argument  in both rooms....In the other room however we are waiting for you, Dee or any one for that matter to display the test Einstein, Newton, any person using Pi for that matter uses to test If a diameter also known as chord can be divided by a circumference to make a precise number...

    The error made in calculating the area of a circle or sphere is the same error which is used in Einstein’s theory,,,,,,, What I point out is that the theory of relativity can be solved just by changing the equal sign to a approximation symbol...So we can say with mathematical proof " Energy approximates not equals Mass times the constant of a speed of light." Until someone anyone solved the irrational state of calculating the circumference of a circle to its chords Einstein’s field equation would always be wrong.

    The whole problem however is not that basic it is not only the irrational state of Pi by the object which Pi is associated with that causes issues Einstein mistakenly didn't solve before beginning his work. The other bigger and more serious concern is the idea that a circle is 360 degrees and has no zero when using algebra to test results is the biggest mistake. As I said earlier in another debate this places Pi, mathematics, and Science in an act of faith......

    Epimorphism - Wikipedia

    Many authors in abstract algebra and universal algebra define an epimorphism simply as an onto or surjective homomorphism. Every epimorphism in this algebraic sense is an epimorphism in the sense of category theory, but the converse is not true in all categories. In this article, the term "epimorphism" will be used in the sense of category theory given above. For more on this, see § Terminology below.

    I agee, Pi is the creator of abstract algebra....
  • @Nomenclature

    No John, you divide the circumference by the diameter, not the diameter by the circumference.

    Sigh...

    We agree to find ratio we divide the circumference by the "chord" as the diameter is only one choice to make on a list of many chioces on circumferences' chord. The diameter is simple not the areas of a circles' only chord and the odds are a little over half we might get lucky and ever find a ratio by using division alone. It will never happen by using just one chord over and over again like a desprate insane fool trying to prove Einstein right by not just chaging the equal sign of the theory to the sign of approximately.

    Again, the really progress of mathematics is in the writing of a algebra or calculus test to prove a result of dividing the circumference by its chord....That is what would having been the intelligent thing to do by Einstein.

    Show the algebra test that proves the proportion between the mathematical chord call diameter is proportional to the circumference as ratio. We cannot literally divide all numbers and form prices values to be used for ratios. Are you saying dividing any or all numbers give us exact ratio? The goal is to establish a mathematical proof or a scientific method to show proof.

    Is the line through the center if a circle as fact (a) diameter, (b) two radii, (c) chord (d) all choices, diameter, two radii, and a chord?

    What other numbers that make up this exact list of proportions.

    Example:  is the list?  3.14159:1, 3.15159:1, 3.16159:1 3.17159 what is the increment of ratio that describes the exact detail of Pi.

    Example 2: is the list? 3.141591, 3.141592,3.141593, 3.141594 what is the increment of the precise value in ratio?

    If Pi is exact show the increment in ratio it defines please?

    Might say all three sides of a right triangle can be used to find both exact ends of a chord inside the area of a circle. Once outside the circles area a scalene triangle than can be used in recreating the exact circumference directly at 1:1 ratio making exact to scale copy of the circumference length a one side of the triangle.

    The argument against Wikipedia does not exist.

    “The transcendence of π implies that it is impossible to solve the ancient challenge of squaring the circle with a compass and straightedge.”

    This is true when addressing a right angle however the use of a scalene triangle simply implies the straight edge was the wrong tool for the mathematical operation.

    Not that it is a ratio but that it cannot be proven as an approximation due to the number is never obviously resolved. The answer to resolution is that the irrational state of the decimal means it will always be possibly resolved on the very next calculation.  


  •     The number π is a mathematical constant that is the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter

    No argument, as it excludes Pi meaning that it cannot be a solution of an equation involving only sums, products, powers, and integers. Einstein is still wrong.

    Consequently, its decimal representation never ends, nor enters a permanent pattern repeating pattern.

    @John_C_87
    Mathematical proof and the scientific method are not mutually exclusive and serve different purposes. Mathematical proof is used to establish the truth of a statement based on logical reasoning and the use of mathematical laws and principles. The scientific method, on the other hand, is a systematic process used to gather and evaluate evidence in order to support or disprove a hypothesis. While mathematical proof can be used to support scientific theories, it is not the only means of establishing fact in science. The scientific method relies on experimentation, observation, and replication to establish facts.

    Please tell me you are trolling? You can't honestly believe that the circumference of a circle proves Einstein's theory of general relativity wrong? First I could be seen as trolling...I guess? The mathematical proof is not bait without bite of its own, as math prove Einstein’s theory as fact to start by simply re-writing GR first as it is explained in field equation as E  ≈ Mc ^ 2

    It is not about faith ZeusAres42 " " What is believed " " A circles circumference is second in a list of proofs that can be used to prove the theory of Relativity is intentional "written" wrong. Where does the contradiction to popular opinion come from? It is this simple to prove take a string the length of the circumference and divided it into four pieces and those four pieces fit inside the circumference. The four pieces of string are chords of that circumference just as the diameter is a chord of the circumference. Now try divide the circumference piece of string by three just as the attempt that is made with the diameter divided by three, then attempt to place any of the three pieces inside the circumference. The three pieces of string no longer fits inside the circle circumference and is no longer a chord like the diameter was in the past. After the introduction to chords principle to the equation then is to be re-write E  ≈ Mc ^ 2 as  E + Mc ^ 2

    NEXT:
    The Wiki link from Nomenclature

    Consequently, its decimal representation never ends, nor enters a permanent pattern repeating pattern. It is a transcendental number, meaning that it cannot be a solution of an equation involving only sums, products, powers, and integers. The transcendence of π implies that it is impossible to solve the ancient challenge of squaring the circle with a compass and straightedge. The decimal digits of π appear to be randomly distributed,[a]but no proof of this conjecture has been found.

    By the way a mathematical proof of conjecture is made by numbers of Pi are not randomly distributed when the value is proportional to all approximation of a sum value of all circumference divided by diameter. The values between the different circles are always identical.. Are they not?


    The third shared mistake of mathematical proof 
    Pi is part of a list of natural numbers and has no reference of zero by degree to then be used in negative like our list of real number in linear algebra. This was suggested to be an issue first by Galileo's law of odd numbers.

    I do not feel I am trolling...The question mathematical proof is beeter than Scientific method? A scientific methed had already been applied to Pi in attempts to prove it is fact.
