SP#6: Unit K Concept 10: Writing a repeating decimal as a rational number using geometric series

The viewer needs to firstly make sure they have the correct a sub 1 and ratio. It is important to remember that there is an infinity amount of numbers in this problem. The trickiest part of the problem is trying to solve for the sum because you deal with fractions and you have to make sure to convert you whole number into a fraction that has the same denominator as the fraction you add it to. When solving for your sum it is also important to make sure you have the correct sum by dividing your fraction. You should have one different number at the very end of your repeating decimal.

Fibonacci Beauty Ratio Reflective Essay

Fibonacci Beauty Ratio Measurements

After looking over the results, Ismael R. is the most “beautiful” based on the Beauty Ratio because of his average proportion, 1.67, which is closest to 1.618, the Golden ratio. To be the “most beautiful” your body must be equally proportioned to a certain number of centimeters after dividing the measurements. Elizabeth was also close to the golden ratio and in my opinion of her and Ismael’s faces; they have nice structured features, such as their nose and jaw. They do not have any odd features. However, I do not think that the golden rule really determines the most beautiful person because I still think the others in which I measured are still good looking even if their ratio wasn't near the golden rule. Different and special features is what I think make a person beautiful. There shouldn't be a certain proportion one should have in order to be seen as beautiful.

     An important thing to pay close attention to is multiplying you denominator. It is very easy to make a mistake when foiling multiple factors. A tricky thing when solving is trying to canceling out B,C,D. You have to make sure of multiplying the right number in order for the equations to cancel out. Once you find your A the rest of the problem should be simple since you just plug in and solve, in which you can use your calculator.
