How to Draw the Golden Fibonacci Series
Listed below are 3
different ways to graphically represent the Fibonacci Series.
THE GOLDEN SECTION
THE GOLDEN RECTANGLE THE GOLDEN TRIANGLE Fibonacci Series Background... First off the Golden Fibonacci Series (also called the Golden Ratio, Golden Section, Golden Mean and Phi) is named after Leonardo Fibonacci (pronounced fee bahn aut chee) an Italian mathematician who discovered this series. Much has been written about him and his discoveries at the links listed below. The Fibonacci Series (Phi) can be written as:
f
This
irrational number Phi, is equal to the square root of 5 plus 1,
divided by 2. (Sqrt
(5)+1)/2 = 1.618033988749895 This
irrational number can't be written as a regular fraction. You could
however, get a close estimate. One way, is by dividing Fibonacci numbers.
Fibonacci numbers basically follow the pattern 1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21.... each
number is the sum of the two before it. 2+3=5,5+3=8,8+5=13 and so on (see
a list of the first 100 Fibonacci Numbers below). If you divide two
consecutive Fibonacci numbers, you will get an close approximation of Phi.
The larger the numbers divided, the closer the resultant is to Phi.
