Multiplied by 10, this is sqrt(5)/2. As such, it appears in the Pythagorean tree as the ratio of the distance between 2 consecutive square centers divided by the length of the initial square (see CNRS link). - Michel Marcus, Feb 20 2013
The two-dimensional Steinitz constant K_2(0,0), related to sum of vectors, is sqrt(5)/2. - Jean-François Alcover, Jun 04 2014
sqrt(5)/2 is the length of the shortest line segment needed to dissect the unit square into 4 regions with equal areas if all the line segments start at the same vertex of the square. - Wesley Ivan Hurt, May 18 2021
sqrt(5)/2 is the standard deviation of rolling a 4-sided die. - Mohammed Yaseen, Feb 23 2023
