What do the chambers of a nautilus shell have in
common with the Parthenon and playing cards? It turns out that their
forms are examples of a standard proportion. It is called a "golden ratio" also know as a "Perfect Ratio"
The earliest evidence of human appreciation for
the pleasing qualities of these proportions is found in the pyramids
at Giza, which appear to have been built with a 5 to 8 ratio between
height and base. This is a close approximation (0.625) to the
"perfect" ratio, although scholars disagree over whether the
Egyptians were actually aware of it.
