Golden Section

Golden Section also called the Golden Mean. The Golden Section is an irrational proportion defined as a line cut in such a way that the ratio between the smaller section to the greater equals the ratio of the greater section to the whole line. The ratio of the two lengths in the Golden Section is called phi (Φ = 1.618).

Golden Section

The Golden Section (or Golden Mean) is an irrational proportion defined as a line cut in such a way that:

  • The ratio between the smaller section to the greater equals the ratio of the greater section to the whole line

Formula: AB / BC = BC / AC

Golden Ratio (Φ) ≈ 1.618033988749895
