The angles of the Bent Pyramid given by Lehner are 54 degrees 27 minutes 44 seconds and 43 degrees 22 minutes or

54.46222 and 43.36666.

These angles make much more sense when described in the 357 degree system.

360 -:- 357 x 54 = 54.45378

360 -:- 357 x 43 = 43.361344

Therefore the two angles become whole numbers, 54 degrees and 43 degrees and the difference between them is 11 degrees of 357 degrees. This is well within the plus or minus range of error of all surveys.

The base angle of the Bent pyramid is generated by a 5 x 7 right triangle that also constructs a 5/44ths angle where it intersects the 5 circle. (See drawing)

A 5 x 4 triangle constructed from centre base intersects the 7 x 5 triangle at the point of the bend in the pyramid and this point is then in turn bisected by the "4" circle

The top angle has a tangent ratio of 1511-:-1600 (0.944375) and the harmonic construction utilizes the heptagon angles and the 7/19ths angle which all form on the base grid. The apex forms at the northern side of the G.P., 220 cubits north of centre. If the radius of the outer circle was 1, then that point becomes 0.11 north of the centre.

(See drawings)

5/44ths has a tangent ratio of 1511-:-1311, the measures of the north and south sides of G3, and consequently the position of G3 describes the equation for the construction of an 11 or 44-sided figure. The Red Pyramid has the same proportions as the top of the Bent Pyramid and both pyramids are the same height.

The height of both pyramids, in inches, encodes an equation. The height is 4142 inches or 201.0101 r.c. As we have seen on the plateau measures, decimal equations are times 1,000 and in whole numbers. Therefore the encoded equation to be found is the square root of 2 minus 1 x 10,000.

sq.rt. 2 (1.4142) minus 1 = 0.4142 x 10,000 = 4142 p.ins. -:- 20.6066 = 201.0101r.c.
