How Measurements are Derived, an Explanation.



The most important measurement in the Pyramid of Giza is the height of the floor level at the Entrance.

This is calculated from five different separate entities.

1.    The length of the Pyramid base.

2.    The Pyramid height.

3.    The Pyramid slant height.

4.    The ratio 12:1.

5.    The value 8.61803.





Using 8.61803


Using the Pyramid base length 756.

                                        756 / 2 = 378

                                        378 / 8.61803 = 43.8616            BC = 43.8616


Using the Pyramid Height 479.9037.

                               479.9037 / 8.61803 = 55.6861            AC = 55.6861


Using the Pyramid slant height 610.8941.

                                610.8941 / 8.61803 = 70.8856            AB = 70.8856


        Not enough can be said about the architect who designed the Great Pyramid of
Giza, his knowledge was astounding to say the least. But the way that he put ratios
and formulae together to achieve such accurate results shows his genius.

As a conclusion:

The architect put different ratios together to make a plan, they all meet exactly.

Measuring angles is not necessary, only lengths. Angles are produced by default.


The ratio 12:1 and 55.6861 start the Pyramid design.

In conjunction with other ratios the design is completed.

The ratio 12:1 combined with the Entrance door height can happen only in this proportion because of 8.618, it can happen nowhere else.

8.618 completes the first triangulation ABC.



How did the architect know this 4,500 years ago?

Why was 8.618 used to locate the ratio of 12:1?
