OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah i saw this website to still confused.

OpenStudy (goldphenoix):

@jim_thompson5910 He probably know how to do this.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hello help please

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

what exactly do you want to do again?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

learn to the golden rectangles in ratio

OpenStudy (anonymous):

8x11 inches A piece of printer paper 11/8 = 1.375 like this

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

so you're trying to make a golden rectangle?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

so make the length 1 inch long, then make the width 1.618 inches long since the golden ratio is 1.618 roughly

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what no i have to measure a rectangle in the house say like a key board is 19 w by 6 h

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

ok what about it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how do you get it in the ratio

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

well 19/6 = 3.1667 but that's not the golden ratio

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

so a 19x6 rectangle is nowhere close to being a golden rectangle

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how do you get the golden ratio

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
