A rectangle of length L and width W is a golden rectangle if L/W = r = (1+sqrt(5))/2. The diagonal has length D = sqrt(L^2+W^2), so D/W = sqrt(r^2+1) = sqrt(r+2).
Largest root of x^4 - 5x^2 + 5. - Charles R Greathouse IV, May 07 2011
This is the case n=10 of (Gamma(1/n)/Gamma(2/n))*(Gamma((n-1)/n)/Gamma((n-2)/n)) = 2*cos(Pi/n). - Bruno Berselli, Dec 13 2012
Edge length of a pentagram (regular star pentagon) with unit circumradius. - Stanislav Sykora, May 07 2014
