A Knol___ [How A Symbol (pi) Is Discovered In A Circle?]

How a New Symbol pie is Discovered in a Circle?

Everyone knows that the word pi is a greek letter and the other word pie is usually meant for a round dish of baked meat, fish or cake.What I have discovered is that the original symbol of pi is not the real symbol ; but rather my symbol of pie taken from a piece of cake does look like a real symbol! Watch out from my writings and findings.

A circle is made up of a circumference, radii and a diameter.Two radii makes one diameter.The original symbol of pi was a 2 parallel vertical straight lines with a horizontal straight line on top.My symbol pie will be an inverted V with a circular 'c' placed on top of inverted V.How does this come about?

At a ceremonial function, this pie cake is divided into several parts cut in V-shapes and each part is distributed to everyone present on the occasion to celebrate the event.Although the pronounciation of pi & pie is the same, but for the sake of proving how pi & pie are alike, we shall asuume as the one and the same in actual meaning also.
Therefore,
Let pi = pie (Assumption)
When the cake is cut and divided into several parts, then each part is called a portion or sector of a circle.You will find that my new symbol pie is in the circle itself ! How do you prove this theory? The theory is proved by taking out a sector of a circle and placing it separately on a plate.If You look at this figure, it will look like a perfect V covered on its top by a small 'C' Now there are 2 radii on this V and a small rounded portion held to-gathter to form a sector.Now, cut off this small rounded portion 'C' and paste it on top of the inverted V.Now, what do you see? A new type of symbol pie, which I feel should be the right one, because the full design os this symbol is taken out from the circle itself. Below, I give the proof of my discovery......................

The size of the pie cake was in proportion to the sizes of the sectors of the pie cake.The bigger the sector having bigger circumsference, the bigger will be the pie cake.Therefore, it can be safely assumed that pi or pie is in proportion to the size of the circumsference.

Therefore,
pi or pie is proportion to 'C' or 'C' is proportion to pi or pie
Therefore,
C = pie x a constant
C = pie x 2 radius (Since radius is always constant)
C = pie x d (since 2r = d)
Therefore,
pie = C / D
Now, what do you think this symbol stands for? It is indeed my new symbol pie or inverted V with 'C' pasted on its meeting points to form a perfect new symbol pie. Finally, my findings are that the new symbol pie, circumsference and radii are all interconnected and are part of the circle. It is indeed from here that this NEW SYMBOL PIE IS BORN & ORIGINATED.
I think the right symbol pie should be as inverted V with a 'C' pasted on top at its meeting of its 2 radii and no other symbol will match this theory.In all humility, I ask my fellow mathematicians to throw more light on the theory as conceptualized and written by me.-----------Manohar Bhatia.
