ing with all kinds of physics is
little overdone, except for tech
nical students. 1t repe1s many to
whom mathematics are distaste-
full, and tends to breed prejudice
against studies which are essen
tial to sound education, and to a
good comprehension Of the world
in which we live.
On the other hand the study OF
elementary mathematics ought to
be much more attractive than re-
suits show it to be in the schools.
Too great a number Of graduates

able spread of interest in ''cross
word puzzles" which are widely
heralded as strongly educative
in their tendency, as they doubt
less are, suggests that an equally
useful popular interest might be
aroused in the curious puzzles
that are solvab1e by simple math-
ematics.
Apropos comes the following
inquiry, the answer to which may
serve as an Illustration:
During a friendly discussion
the other evening the following
was brought up, and there being
none of us competent to give a
final answer. we have decided to
appeal to you. Here is the ques-
ton.
Solves GeOmetric Puzzle.
"Mr. A has a plot eight feet
long and two feet wide. Mr.. B
wishes to exchange for it a plot
containing the same area. but
in the form of circle. What
must be the approximate cir
conference Of The circle?'
In solving this little problem
some of the most useful data OF
plane geometry, which really,
ought to be as familiar almost as
the multiplication table, or the
alphabet, may be called into in
teresting play as a very pleasing
intellectual exercise. That pow
erful little mathematical demon
called "Pi," for instance, imme-
diately steps to the front and
says: This is my job. Watch
me work"
The area of Mr.. AS rectangu-
lar plot, which is 8 feet long and
2 feet wide, must, of course be
SKI, or Is square feet. Mr.. B is
required to inclose approximate
ly the same area within the cir
The Washington times., 1925-04-18

conference of a circle. Now
there are two rules of plane ge-
ometry, in each Of which "pi'
takes a hand, that will help him
out. The first tells us that the
area Of any circle equals the
square of its radius, multiplied
by Pi, for Pi is a certain number
Gust what the number is ~
shall presently see).
The second rule says that tn
circumference of any circle equalA
twice it's radius multiplied by Pi.
Let us set these rules at work tS
gether.
The area required Is 16. Then,
by the first rule, Is must be
equal to radius squared tcall it
Ra), multiplied by Pi. Put 1t thia
way in symbols: RsPi=16. That
being so. evidently Ra-1S-Pi.
Before solving that equation we
must know what Pi equals numer
1cally. Well, it has no perfectly
determinate value, and that is
the reason why "squarng the
circle" except approximately
is impossible. A sufficiently close
value of Pi for almost all practi-
cal calculations is the mixed deci-
NAL 3.1416. In many cases 3.14,
or 31-7 suffices. In this case we
will use 3.14 to save figures.
Squares q Circle.
Now, Is divided by 3.I4 gives
approximately 5.0955. Look back
at the equation and you see that
this is the square OF the radius
of the circle. The radius, then,
will equal the square root OF
5.0955, which is approximately
2.2573. We need the radius in
order to calculate, by the second
rule, the circumference.
The second rule says multiply
twice the. radius by Pi and that
will give the circumference.
Twice 2.2573 is 4.515, and that
multiplied by 3.14 gives 14.1671
feet for the circumference Of Mr..
BIS circle which is to include APP
proximately the 16 feet of Mr..
AS rectangular plot.
OF course il a closer value OF
Pi were taken the figures for the
circumference would be slightly
different. Closer approximations
in some of the other figures that
have used would also have q
slight effect on the result. But
1 have only intended to show
you a way in which the problem
may be solved. If you wish you
can carry the decimals out
farther.
