The Great Pyramid angle is actually atan(14/11). Why 14:11 ? cf(14/11) = [1,3,1,2] atan(14/11) = 51.843 degrees. = asin(14/sqrt(317)) = acos(11/sqrt(317)) ["317" really weird coincidence: 22/7 = 3 1/7] Apparently, 14/11 ~ 4/pi, if you believe pi=22/7. cf(4/pi) = [1,3,1,1,1,15,...] So, the angle the Egyptians really desired was atan(4/pi) = 51.854 degrees. Supposedly, the circumference of the base of the Great Pyramid ~ the circumference of a circle whose radius is the height of the Great Pyramid. (Note that the base corners would protrude outside the sphere of radius = height, so this sphere would NOT enclose the Pyramid; the Roman Pantheon is more mathematically interesting, as it perfectly illustrates Archimedes's "Hatbox Theorem".) So if r is the height of the pyramid, the circle circumference is 2*pi*r ~ 2*(22/7)*r or (44/7)*r. So each side of the Pyramid base is (11/7)*r, and the distance from the center of the base to the center of one of the base sides is (11/14)*r. So we have a right triangle r, (11/14)*r, (sqrt(317)/14)*r through the center of the Pyramid for a face angle of atan(14/11). David Ian Lightbody.
