The Golden Section黄金分割.pptVIP

Do Now: What do you know and/ or what do you want to know about the Golden Section and Fibonacci Numbers? Aim: What is the Golden Section? The Golden Section is often represented by the Greek letter phi. The Golden Section precisely equals: (1+√5) 2 The Golden Section is also known as: Golden Ratio Golden Spiral Golden Mean Divine Proportion Golden Number Golden Rectangle Phi The golden ratio is an irrational number. It is usually rounded to 1.618. There is a way to find it more accurately though. If you use Fibonacci numbers you will find a pattern in dividing them. Fibonacci Numbers Start with any two numbers and add them together. For example: 0 and 1. So you have 0, 1, 1… Now add the next two numbers together and keep adding. 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233… Finding the Golden Section 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233… 1/1=1 21/13=1.615 2/1=2 34/21=1.619 3/2=1.5 55/34=1.618 5/3=1.666 89/55=1.618 8/5=1.6 144/89=1.618 13/8=1.625 233/144=1.618 Notice a pattern? As the numbers get higher, they become closer to the golden ratio. The Golden Ratio on a line The Golden Section is when the ratio of the smaller section of the line to the larger section is congruent to the ratio of the larger section of the line to the whole line. Confused? Let’s take a look at it: A B M According to the Golden Ratio, AM/MB ? MB/AB The Golden Rectangle The Golden Rectangle is a rectangle whose sides are in proportion to the Golden Ratio. The sides are in the ratio of 1:(1+√5)/2 or 1:1.618 Notice that if you take away the square portion from this rectangle the rectangle can still be divided to receive the Golden Rectangle once again. The removal of squares can be performed infinitely. Architecture Egypt: Used in the Great Pyramids. The geometry shows an angle of 51.83 degrees which is the cosine of Phi Greece: “Phi” was named for the Greek sculptor Phidias. The exterior Parthenon dimensions form a golden rectangle. Art Leonardo
