The golden ratio, also known as the golden number, golden proportion is basically when a line is divided into
two parts and the longer part (a) divided by the smaller part (b) is equal to the sum of (a) + (b) divided by (a),
which both equal 1.618.

The Golden Ratio (or "Golden Section") is based on Fibonacci Numbers, where every number in the sequence
(after the second) is the sum of the previous 2 numbers:

1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, ...

If we keep going, we produce an interesting number which mathematicians call "phi" (Golden Ratio or Golden
Section):

Φ=1.6180339887…

This ratio was used by architects and artists throughout history to produce objects of great beauty (like
Michelangelo's "David" and the Greek temples.)

Eg: a+b/b =

= 8+13/13=1.61

Golden ratio and
mathematics
Two quantities are said to be in
golden ratio, if their ratio is equal
to the ratio of their sum to the
larger of the two quantities. The
golden ratio is approximately
equal to 1.618.
Example:
Divide the line into two sections. The two
sections are in golden ratio if the ratio of
the length of the larger section (say, “a”) to
the length of the smaller section, (say, “b”) is
equal to the ratio of their sum “a + b” to the
larger section “a”.
Derivatives
From the definition of golden ratio,we get
two equations.
i.e. a/b = ϕ …(1)
(a+b)/a = ϕ …(2)
Equation (2) can be written as:
(a/a) + (b/a) = ϕ
1+ (1/ϕ) = ϕ …(3) [From equation (1), we can
get b/a = 1/ϕ ]
Therefore, the golden ratio formula is given
by: ϕ = 1 + (1/ϕ)
Derivatives
Golden Ratio Formula
The golden ratio formula is used to calculate
the value of the golden ratio.
From the definition of golden ratio
we get two equations.
i.e. a/b = ϕ …(1)
(a+b)/a = ϕ …(2)
Equation (2) can be written as:
(a/a) + (b/a) = ϕ
1 + (1/ϕ) = ϕ …(3) [From equation (1), we can
get b/a = 1/ϕ ]
Derivatives

As ϕ is the ratio between two positive quantities, the value of ϕ should


be the positive one.
Hence, the value of golden ratio ϕ is approximately equal 1.618.
Note:
1. Golden ratio is a special number and is
approximately equal to 1.618.
2. Golden ratio is represented using the
symbol “ϕ”.
3. Golden ratio formula is ϕ = 1 + (1/ϕ).
4. ϕ is also equal to 2 × sin (54°)
5. If we take any two successive Fibonacci
Numbers, their ratio is very close to the
value 1.618 (Golden ratio).
Physical Beauty
Golden Ratio
Why do many people feel that
Jessica Simpson is beautiful?

This mask of the human face is based


on the Golden Ratio. The proportions
of the length of the nose, the
position of the eyes and the length
of the chin, are claimed to conform
to some aspect of the Golden Ratio.
When placed over the photo
of Jessica Simpson, we see
there is a good fit (that is,
the proportions of her face
fit the geometrically "nice"
proportions of the mask,
based on the Golden Ratio).
Importance
1. One of the key principles of the golden ratio is balance. When they follow
the ratio's proportions, designers can ensure that their designs are indeed
visually balanced.
2. Some studies suggest that people find designs that use the golden ratio
more attractive and are more likely to remember them.
3. 2The golden ratio, or phi, is an irrational number that prevents
synchronization in a mathematical sense by making it impossible for the
excitatory phases of two oscillations to meet

EXAMPLES
Calculate the value of the golden
ratio ϕ using quadratic equations.
We know,
ϕ = 1 + 1/ϕ
Multiplying both sides by ϕ,
ϕ2 = ϕ + 1
On rearranging, we get,
ϕ2 - ϕ -1 = 0
The above equation is a quadratic equation and can be solved using quadratic formula:
ϕ = −b±√b2−4ac2a−b±b2−4ac2a
Substituting the values of a = 1, b = -1 and c = -1, we get,
ϕ = 1±√(1+4)21±(1+4)2
The solution can be simplified to a positive value giving:
ϕ = 1/2 + √5/2
Note that we are not considering the negative value, as ϕ is the ratio of lengths and it cannot be
negative.
Therefore, ϕ = 1/2 + √5/2
The 14th term in the sequence is
377. Find the next term.
We know that 15th term = 14th term × the golden ratio.
F15 = 377 × 1.618034
≈ 609.99 = 610
Therefore, the 15th term in the Fibonacci sequence is 610.
