Fibonacci Numbers And Golden Ratio
Who Was Fibonacci?
• A Famous Mathematician
• Fibonacci (1170-1250) is a short for theLatin "filius Bonacci" which means "the son of Bonacci“ but his full name was Leonardo Pisano
• He introduced the Hindu-Arabic number system into Europe
About the
Origin of
Fibonacci Sequence
Fibonacci Sequence was discovered after an investigation on the reproduction of rabbits.
Fibonacci’s Rabbits
Problem:
Suppose a newly-born pair of rabbits (one male, one female) are put in a field. Rabbits are able to mate at the age of one month so that at the end of its second month, a female can produce another pair of rabbits. Suppose that the rabbits never die and that the female always produces one new pair (one male, one female) every month from the second month on. How many pairs will there be in one year?
Pairs
1 pair
At the end of the first month there is still only one pair
Pairs
1 pair
1 pair
2 pairs
End first month… only one pair
At the end of the second month the female produces a new pair, so now there are 2 pairs of rabbits
Pairs
1 pair
1 pair
2 pairs
3 pairs
End second month… 2 pairs of rabbits
At the end of the third month, the original female produces a second pair, making 3 pairs in all in the field.
End first month… only one pair
Pairs
1 pair
1 pair
2 pairs
3 pairsEnd third month… 3 pairs
5 pairs
End first month… only one pair
End second month… 2 pairs of rabbits
At the end of the fourth month, the first pair produces yet another new pair, and the female born two months ago produces her first pair of rabbits also, making 5 pairs.
Thus We get the following sequence of numbers: 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34 ,55,89,144....
This sequence, in which each number is a sum of two
previous is called Fibonacci sequence
so there is the
simple rule: add the last two to get the next!
So 144 Pairs will be there
at the end of One Year….

and 55 in a clockwise direction
Note that 34 and 55 are the ninth and tenth Fibonacci numbers respectively.
Also note that The flower itself has 34 petals.
Pinecones clearly show the Fibonacci

Note that 8 and 13 are Consecutive Fibonacci
numbers

Fibonacci numbers.Fibonacci numbers.
The Fibonacci numbers can be found in pineapples and bananas. Bananas have 3 or 5 flat sides, Pineapple scales have Fibonacci spirals in sets of 8, 13, 21
The
Golden Ratio
The The golden ratiogolden ratio is an irrational is an irrational mathematical constant, mathematical constant,
approximately equals toapproximately equals to
1.61803398871.6180339887
The The golden ratiogolden ratio is is often denoted by the often denoted by the
GreekGreek letter letter φ φ (Phi)(Phi)
So So φ = φ = 1.61803398871.6180339887
Also known as: • Golden Ratio,• Golden Section,• Golden cut,• Divine proportion, • Divine section, • Mean of Phidias• Extreme and mean ratio,• Medial section,
Two quantities are in the golden ratio if the ratio between the sum of those quantities and the larger one is the same as the ratio between the larger one and
the smaller
.

a+b
a+b
a=
a
b= φ
φ =1+√5
2 = 1.618
One interesting thing about Phi is its reciprocal
1/φ = 1/1.618 = 0.618.
It is highly unusual for the decimal integers of a number and
its reciprocal to be exactly the same.
A golden rectangle is a rectangle where the ratio of its
length to width is the golden ratio. That is whose sides are
in the ratio 1:1.618
The golden rectangle has the property that it can be further subdivided in to two portions a square and a golden rectangle
This smaller rectangle can similarly be subdivided in to another set of smaller golden rectangle and smaller square.
And this process can be done repeatedly to produce smaller versions of squares
and golden rectangles
Golden Rectangle
Golden Spiral
Start with the smallest one on the right connect the lower right corner to the upper right corner with an arc that is one fourth of a circle. Then continue your line in to the second square on the with an arc that is one fourth of a circle , we will continue this process until each square has an arc inside of it, with all of them connected as a continues line. The line should look like a spiral when we are done .
Golden Triangle
The Golden triangle is a special isosceles triangle. The top angle is 360 while the bottom two angles are 720 each
Relation between Fibonacci
Sequence and Golden ratio
Aha! Notice that as we continue down the sequence, the ratios seem to be
converging upon one number (from both
sides of the number)!
2/1 = 2.0 2/1 = 2.0 (bigger) (bigger)
3/2 = 1.53/2 = 1.5 (smaller) (smaller) 5/3 = 1.675/3 = 1.67(bigger)(bigger)
8/5 = 1.68/5 = 1.6(smaller)(smaller)
13/8 = 1.625 13/8 = 1.625 (bigger)(bigger)
21/13 = 1.615 21/13 = 1.615 (smaller)(smaller)
34/21 = 1.619 34/21 = 1.619 (bigger)(bigger)
55/34 = 1.61855/34 = 1.618(smaller)(smaller)
89/55 = 1.61889/55 = 1.618
The Fibonacci sequence is 1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34,55,….
If we continue to look at the If we continue to look at the ratios as the numbers in the ratios as the numbers in the sequence get larger and larger sequence get larger and larger the ratio will eventually become the ratio will eventually become the same number, and that the same number, and that number is the number is the Golden RatioGolden Ratio!!

Golden ratio in Art
Many artists who lived after Phidias have used this proportion. Leonardo Da Vinci called it the "divine proportion" and featured it in many of his paintings
Mona Lisa's face is a perfect golden rectangle, according to the ratio of the width of her forehead compared to the length from the top of her head to her chin.
