Comparison Between Current Value of pi & New Value of pi π

Abstract

 In this paper, I show that the comparison between the current approximate value of pi (π) and its exact value raises several questions. It is generally believed that the value of pi is irrational and transcendental, meaning that it cannot be expressed as an exact finite decimal value. It is also considered impossible to obtain the area of a square equal to the area of a given circle using conventional geometrical methods.

Even today, these ideas are widely accepted throughout the world. However, I claim that solutions to all these problems have now been found.

The number (17−8√3) is also an irrational number. However, pi (π) is generally considered to be transcendental. When the value of (17−8√3) is entered into a computer calculator, its result is also displayed up to as many decimal places as required.
