Lute of Pythagoras ( Trivia # 4 )

on Monday, April 27, 2009

In my earlier posts i told you about the Pythagoras Tree . Now i am going to tell u something about the LUTE ....
The lute of Pythagoras
is a geometric form made of pentagons with inscribed pentagrams the sides of the pentagrams are the sides of the smaller pentagons. The sides of the lute are based on the number phi, which is the golden ratio and an irrational number like pi. If you measure any line in the lute and also a similar line just before it , the ratio of both comes out to be phi.
