%N Decimal expansion of (3-phi)/2, where phi is the golden ratio.

%C This is the height h of the isosceles triangle in a regular pentagon inscribed in the unit circle formed from a diagonal as base and two adjacent pentagon sides. h = sqrt(sqrt(3-phi)^2 - (sqrt(2 + phi)/2)^2) = sqrt(10 - 5*phi)/2 = (3 - phi)/2. - _Wolfdieter Lang_, Jan 07 2018
