GOLDEN RATIO

Two quantities are in the golden ratio if the ratio between the sum of those quantities and the larger one is the same as the ratio between the larger one and the smaller.

Help us get the next number in the Fibonacci Sequence. Limit of the ratios successive turns in the fibonacci sequence. A mathematical constant approximately 1.

Divide all Fibonacci number to

Multiply the Golden Ratio to the Fibonacci Number = we get the next number in fibonacci sq

or 1.618 (the 13th number in the sequence)

the previous numbers to get the golden ratio.

Golden ratio and Fibonacci numbers

Recall: 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233, 377, 610, 987, 1597, ...

1.618 × 55 = 88.99 (89)

1.618 x 233 = 376.99 (377)

ϕ^ = 1.

  1. Fn = Fn-1 • Fn +1 —> F13 = 144 • 377 = 233
  2. Fn = Fn-2 + Fn-1 —> F13 = 89 + 144 = 233

ENGLISH vs MATHEMATICS

English has Noun and Sentences

Mathematics Language & Symbols

Mathematics, therefore, is the language of the sciences, business, economics, music, architecture, arts, and even politics.

Noun is a name given to an object. It can be a person, place or a thing. Sentences must state a complete thought. It can be true, false and sometimes true/sometimes false.

Mathematics has Expressions and Sentences Expression is a name given to mathematical object of interest. It can be a number, set, function, matrix and ordered pair. Sentences must state a complete thought. It can be true, false and sometimes true/sometimes false.

MATHEMATICAL LANGUAGE

precise which means it is able to make very fine distinctions or definitions among a set of mathematical symbols. concise because a mathematician can express otherwise long expositions or sentences briefly using the language of mathematics. powerful, that is, one can express complex thoughts with relative ease.

MATHEMATICAL SYMBOLS

the sum of

there exists

for every (for any)

element of (or member of)

not an element of (or not a member of)

subset of

if..,then

if and only if

set of real numbers

set of natural number

set of integers

set of rational numbers

infinity

Z

Q

N

R

MATHEMATICAL SENTENCES

The word "is" could mean equality, inequality, or membership in a set. Numbers can be CARDINAL (numbers are used for counting and answering the question "how many?", ORDINAL (tells the position of a thing in terms of first, second, third, etc.), NOMINAL (numbers are used only as a name, or to identify something, not as an actual value or position).

EXAMPLES:

A. For every real number x, there exists a real number y such that the sum of x and y is equal to 10. B. For every positive integer x, there exists a real number y such that the square of y is equal to x. C. For any real numbers x and y, the square of their sum is equal to the sum of their squares plus twice their product. D. There exist integers m and n such that m minus n is less than or equal to m plus n.

C. d.
