We had mentioned that the &#8220;<strong>Quadrature of the Circumference<\/strong>&#8221; consists of finding a quadrilateral that has the same perimeter of a circle and we had also seen how it was, that in the &#8220;<strong>Fourth Progression<\/strong>&#8221; is the moment where the &#8220;<strong>numerical occurrence<\/strong>&#8221; occurs where the numerical value of the perimeter is equivalent to the numerical value of the area, associated to a quadrilateral of side 4 cm.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/watuqrimanka.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/cuadraturacircunferencia_2-YBgpW7qvKLIgWj5G.png\" alt=\"WatuqRimanka - The Quadrature of the Circumference\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">With this present, we start with the circle circumscribed in that quadrilateral, whose circumference gives us the value of: C = 2\u220fr = 2 x 3.1622 x 2, which is equal to 12.6488 cm. Previously we had also seen how the quadrilateral was formed from a line, in the same way, the solution of the &#8220;<strong>Quadrature of the Circumference<\/strong>&#8221; from another perspective, consists of forming a quadrilateral with the length of the contour of the circumscribed circumference inside the quadrilateral of side 4.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/watuqrimanka.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/cuadraturacircunferencia_3-YD0pblOqKPH9oOv7.png\" alt=\"WatuqRimanka - The Quadrature of the Circumference\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">The numerical solution consists of dividing the value of the circumference circumscribed in the quadrilateral of side 4, by 4, that is: 12.6488 cm \/ 4, which gives us 3.1622 cm, value, which now becomes the value of the side of the quadrilateral, whose perimeter solves the &#8220;<strong>Quadrature of the Circumference<\/strong>&#8220;. This process can also be\u00a0given inversely, which also gives us 3.1622 cm, which represents the fourth part of the value of the circumference, so multiplying this value by 4, gives us the same result of 12.6488 cm, value of the circumference that is equal to the perimeter of the quadrilateral shown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/watuqrimanka.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/ccir-Yan1Gp95GwUp4689.gif\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It is called as the &#8220;Quadrature of the Circumference&#8221; the mathematical problem according to &#8220;geometry&#8220;, which consists in finding -with only ruler and compass- a quadrilateral that has a perimeter equal to the circumference of a given circle.
