THE GOLDEN NUMBER

 THE GOLDEN NUMBER

The golden number was dicovered by Greek mathematicians and disciples of Pythagoras during the sixth century. It is about and harmonic geometrical figure in wich Greeks found a perfectly balances regulated  (with equal sides) pentagon, in wich inside which they could make a five-armed star called pentacle 


When they made the ratios between different parts of the pentacles, the number 1.618 was found by tens of times. This irrational number is considered the symbol of the harmony.
It appears lots of times for example the golden number  appears in "La Sagrada Familia" by Miguel Angel.
