Question
Hi there
Can you explain to me how the value pai ( 3.14..)
was derived. Who is the first person to find this?

Answer
Hi,
Really sorry for the delay, i am having my exams and project study.
I'm really not too good with the history part but there a number of ways to get the value. Go to this page; http://mathworld.wolfram.com/Pi.html or you can as well go through the website for anything on maths.

Sorry for the delay and any mix up.
Regards.
