Hi Jon perhaps I have been misunderstood.

If the question is phrased "approximately 28 units" then there are a zillion ways to attempt a solution. However this goes back to my posting of an image that showed how geometrically one could draw: Phi, 1/Phi, Phi squared, 1/Phi squared (1.618..., 0.618... , 2.618... and 0.381966... ALL EXACTLY CORRECT ) The challenge was then put to me to draw a circle with circumference of 28 units using a similar method and I stated it was not possible to draw a circle with 28 units exactly and nothing I have read or heard changes this fact one little bit. One can not draw a circle with circumference of 28 units. End of story.

If you want to say approximately 28 units fine but that was not the challenge issued to me.

Best regards
Don Barone
