The Golden Section

The Golden Section is a line segment divided into two parts, such that the ratio of the short portion to the longer portion is equal to the ratio of the longer portion to the whole

The golden ratio is the only number whose square can be produced simply by adding 1 and whose reciprocal by subtracting 1

If you take a golden rectangle - one whose length-to-breadth is in the golden ratio - and snip out a square, what remains is another, smaller golden rectangle
