I just have a quick question that has bugged me for some time now.
Why is Pi irrational?
If Pi is the ratio of a circle's circumference and its diameter - that is two rational numbers of finite length - why is the result an irrational value?
If you were to divide a rational number by another rational number doesn't the resulting number have to be rational?
Obviously I am over looking something or not understanding something. Some insight into this would be much appreciated.
