Did you know that 0.999... (repeating) is exactly equal to 1? This counterintuitive result can be proven using limits, algebra, or even geometric series. What's your favorite mathematical surprise? #Mathematics #InfiniteSeries #MathFacts
#DYK Rajveer Meena of India, recited the first 70,000 decimal places of π in 2015?
In 2021, π was calculated to over 62.8 trillion decimal places by computers.
The earliest known calculation of π is dated to ancient Egypt ~1650 BCE!
Y’all look radian today 😻
If you eat too much π you end up with a big circumference.
If you tell me 3.14% of sailors are 🏴☠️ I would respond thar you are being irrational and I don’t want to repeat myself.
Fun fact! 2025 is a square year (45×45=2025).
The last one was 1936, and the next one won't be until 2116.
Next year will be 2025, which is the sum of the cubes of 1 to 9! 🤯
Here's the math:
1³ + 2³ + 3³ + 4³ + 5³ + 6³ + 7³ + 8³ + 9³ = 2025
What a magical number! 🎉

1000000000000066600000000000001 is a prime, a palindrome, and named after a prince of Hell, Belphegor, due to the 666 in the middle and 13 zeros on either side. Fun sidenote, it's represented with the symbol for Pi - but upside down.
The shape of St. Louis' Gateway Arch is an inverted catenary curve.
It's also precisely as tall as it is wide 192m (630ft), weighs 15,645 metric tons (17,246 us tons), and even though it's designed to be able to sway 45cm (18in) it takes a 80kmh (50mph) wind to move the top 3.8cm (1.5in).

#MathFacts The 340th day of the year;
340 can also be written as the sum of consecutive primes in three different ways.
340! +1 is prime. There are only thirteen day numbers of the year for which n! +1 is prime, and 340 is the last of these.
Jim Wilder@wilderlab pointed out that 340 = 4^1 + 4*2 + 4* + 4^4. Just think, tomorrow will be even a longer string of consecutive powers of four!

#MathFacts The 339th day of the year; the plane can be divided into 339 regions with 13 hyperbolae.
There are also 339 possible 2x2 matrices with integer entries between zero and 13.
I just discovered the term emirprimes (semiprime reversed) for numbers like 339 and 933 which are semiprimes that are reversals of each other. 339 = 3 x 113 and 933 is 311 x 3, even the factors are reversals of each other.
