wild20 0 Report post Posted March 14, 2006 (edited) How you found this, I have no idea, but yes, I know Pi. 3.14 is the mathematical equation commonly used to find the circumferance and diameter of various legnths and widths of circles. I use it often in Geometry actually. It is one of my favorites to work with because you use a formula to find another fo4rmula, and from taht you get a answer. But this isn't a math Geometry lesson, so happy Pi Day to you too Edited March 14, 2006 by wild20 (see edit history) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shigajet 0 Report post Posted March 14, 2006 Happy Pi Day!Actually, I remember a while back when I observed a Grade 5 math class, they used that figure - except they didn't refer to it as Pi (yet)...I think they save that until they reach junior high school.

electriic ink 1 Report post Posted March 14, 2006 Happy PI Day! Im not sure how and why did they called 14.march Pi day ?Probably because of the American dating system. Today would be: 3/14/06 Which are the first three digits of pi! I have a feeling there's gonna to be an extra-special celebration in 2015 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dontmaimyourself 0 Report post Posted March 15, 2006 Woops sorry for a minute there I though you said 'Happy Pie day' (I didn't really but I thought it was funny) anyway I missed it by a day, but thanks for sharing this (I had no idea, but hey it looks like you really do learn something new every day). Anyway happy Pi day to all for yesterday.But I will be sure to write it down so that next year I will be sure to have the best Pi day ever. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tyssen 0 Report post Posted March 15, 2006 Wow, I have never heard of Pi Day! That is interesting. Happy Pi Day to all! What is the use of this holiday anyway?I don't think it's a holiday and the reason why you haven't heard of it (like I hadn't either until today) is because you probably come from a country that uses the 14/3/2006 dating system.

FLaKes 0 Report post Posted March 15, 2006 This is the first time I heard about Pi day. I wonder what would happen on math class today.... Maybe the teacher wouldnt even care, or maybe there could be a fun activity. Oh those old days when I used to go to school. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

xaetos 0 Report post Posted March 15, 2006 My school actually celebrates pi day XD Sadly enough, however, I have an ear infection and stayed home today, so I missed it I passed in almost all the items for the pi day scavenger hunt, though, so soon I'll have a pi day t-shirt, along with the other two people in my group XD Btw when is e day ?e = 2.718281828... So really, there is no e day, or at least not in the same format as pi day, since there is no month with 71 days. I guess you could stretch it and say that February 7th is e day, if you realllly wanted to.. XD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
