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
The Golden Section can be expressed like
AB / BC = BC / AC (1)
The ratio of the two lengths is called phi - Φ = 1.618
