TRFTRF The Sacred Geometry of the Giza Pyramids Moustafa Gadalla
TRFTRF Introduction 1. The meaning of sacred geometry and its AE applications. 2. The sacred geometry of the 3 Giza pyramids.
TRFTRF What is Sacred Geometry Herodotus, stated in 500 BCE: Now, let me talk more of Egypt for it has a lot of admirable things and what one sees there is superior to any other country. Plato stated, That the pictures and statues made ten thousand years ago, are in no one particular better or worse than what they now make.

TRFTRF The Tool a cord consisting of 12 equally spaced distances 1 cubit= 1.72 ft. = m
TRFTRF The Sacred Cord When the cord is looped as a full circle, radius is 1.91 cubits = 1 meter exactly (1.91 x ). 1 meter = 1/100,000th part of the quarter of the earth’s meridian
TRFTRF Design Parameters of Egyptian buildings unification of two systems : arithmetic (significant numbers). graphic (square, rectangles, and a few triangles). This union follows the elements described below: 1 - The Active Axes 2 - Significant Points (Along the Axis) 3 - The Telescopic Triangles 4 - The Rectangular Perimeters
