The ancient Egyptians and ancient Greeks knew about the golden ratio‚ regarded as an aesthetically pleasing ratio‚ and incorporated it into the design of monuments including the Great Pyramid‚[1] theParthenon‚ the Colosseum. There are many examples of artists who have been inspired by mathematics and studied mathematics as a means of complementing their works. The Greek sculptor Polykleitos prescribed a series of mathematical proportions for

    floret and c is a constant scaling factor; the florets thus lie on Fermat’s spiral. The divergence angle‚ approximately 137.51°‚ is the golden angle‚ dividing the circle in the golden ratio. Because this ratio is irrational‚ no floret has a neighbor at exactly the same angle from the center‚ so the florets pack efficiently. Because the rational approximations to the golden ratio are of the form F(j):F(j + 1)‚ the nearest neighbors of floret number n are those at n ± F(j) for some index j which depends
