What's in common between these three buildings??
There's a reason for specifying those measurements and lines in the pictures.

    I think the key is in the white/blue lines on the Gothic church...

    No one tried today?? Here's the sitter clue..
    There's a special number, which is common to all these buildings. It's denoted by PHI.
    Wat's the number and wat's the connection?

    (It's not pi=3.14).

    @Scorpion: Thanks for the last clue you had given.....:smile:

    The number behind all 3 buildings denoted by PHI is the GOLDEN NUMBER (= 1.618033988749895...).This number forms the basis for GOLDEN RATIO.

    The sculptors of all the three buildings given above(Eiffel tower,The parthenon aand church) have used GOLDEN RATIO or DIVINE PROPORTION(dividing a line in the extreme and mean ratio) for design.

    Two quantities are in the golden ratio if the ratio between the sum of those quantities and the larger one is the same as the ratio between the larger one and the smaller
    a+b/a = a/b =PHI..

    Is this correct??😕

    Wow its amazing.
    I read about this Divine ratio in Davinci Code there many of the churches in Vatican are build on this ratio it self.

    yep, it is correct. The connection is Golden Ratio is used in all these buildings.

    Specifically, in the third picture, you can visually see that the ratio of the blue line and the white line is roughly 1.62.

    Good answer, miniy.

    Golden Ratio is indeed very interesting, it exist everywhere. In human body too. Google it for more info
