And now G3.

Here are the measurements:



Base is 354 feet 6 inches or 4254 inches

If we use 206.18 cubits as the base for this pyramid and use 20.618 as the number of inches in a cubit we get this result:

206.18 x 20.618 = 4251.02 inches and we then get 354.25 feet or 354 feet 3 inches or within 3 inches of what Perring recorded. However it is also recorded as 108 meters or 4251.96 inches or less than an inch error.

However let's look at the slope distance. It is given as 261 feet 4 inches or 261.33 and could easily be 261 feet 9 and 5/8ths inches or 261.80 once again Phi showing itself not only in cubit measures (206.18) but in Imperial now as well (261.80 or phi squared).

Problem is Petrie measured this pyramid at 201.42 ... wonder what each of them used to be out almost 5 cubits.
