Perspective
We can also use a "trick" of perspective to produce a Star of David with 47 degree angles. If we tilt the star "backwards" (rolling it on the x, or horizontal axis), we will eventually arrive at an image that looks like this: 52 This is the same as keeping the width of the "star" the same, but reducing it's heighth to 75% of the original; which yields an image with the 23.5 degree angles of the tropics. Oddly enough this reduction also produces ~52 degree base angles like the cross section of the Great Pyramid (and the approximate degree of latitude where we find the Stonehenge located). This of course changes the inscribed circle into an ellipse. Projecting the re-drawn star, with 52 degree base angles, onto the Stonehenge produces an image like this. Note especially the elliptical figure in the middle. The Sri Yantra Take a look at an image known as the Sri Yantra, which is composed of three sets of opposing triangles and one extra, and note that the largest of the pairs of triangles has ~52 degree base angles, just like the cross-section of the Great Pyramid and the re-drawn star image. DC Hexagram We find this same shortened (52 degree) hexagram symbol in the DC (1792 planning) map, centered on the White House, with points (clockwise from the top) at Scott Circle, Mt. Vernon Square, the National Archive Bldg., the Washington M'mt., the Navy and Marine Surgical Center, and Washington Circle. Note the ellipse just south of the White House. Scott Circle Notice that the top of this "star" centering on the White House falls on Scott Circle (north of the White House), which also features 23.5 degree angles; and which you will see consists of a shortened and "pinched" Star of David, with an ellipse, and a point in it's center. Now, if we add the pentagram to the hexagram in the DC map, wee see that the downward point of the pentagram also forms a 52 degree angle, and the wide points form 23.5 degree angles. New Hampshire connects the dots for us on the pentagram, to reveal the same 52 degree triangle. The Great Pyramid Interestingly, the Great Pyramid now rests only 2125 meters south of exactly 30 degrees north (29d 58' 51" N), the point where the equilateral Star of David touches the circumference of the circle. However, neither the faces of the pyramid, nor the pyramid cross-section matches the equilateral triangles in the star. The faces of the Pyramid have base angles of 58 degrees 18 minutes. The tangent of 58'18" is 1.618, the limit which the Phi realtionship approaches. The apothem (height of the face triangle) and half the base of the pyramid faces are in the phi relationship to one another. When you place the bases of four 58'18" triangles together to form a square base, then bring the points together, the result is a pyramid with a 51'51" cross section. Or, in other words, if we lean a 58'18" triangle backwards (away from the viewer), the profile that it presents to us at pyramid height is 51'51". [Note that 51'51" is also very close to the latitude at which we find the Stonehenge.] The cross section of the Pyramid is just right for the height of the structure to relate by multiples of Pi to the perimeter, as the radius of a circle or sphere relates to it's circumference. With circles and spheres the formula is C = Pi D (Diameter of circle times Pi). It can also be written, Pi 2 r, since D = 2r. R would be the radius of the circle of sphere, so the circumference would be 2 Pi times the radius. In pyramid terms, r is the height of the pyramid (analagous to the radius of a sphere), and the perimeter is the circumference, so P = 2 Pi h, or P/2 = h Pi. P/2 is half the perimeter, or two sides; so the height times pi equals two pyramid (52) base sides. The pyramid with ~52 degree base angles is located at ~30 north latitude, the point where equilateral triangles inscribed in a circle touch that circle. If we reduce the height of an equilateral triangle until it forms a 52 degree triangle, the diagonals change from being 30 degrees to 23.5 degrees just like the tropics. The compliment of 23.5 is 66.5 degrees (90-23.5=66.5) which happens to be the location of the arctic circle, where the solar arc exceeds the width of the globe. Continue

Take a look at an image known as the Sri Yantra, which is composed of three sets of opposing triangles and one extra, and note that the largest of the pairs of triangles has ~52 degree base angles, just like the cross-section of the Great Pyramid and the re-drawn star image.

Note the ellipse just south of the White House.

Scott Circle
Notice that the top of this "star" centering on the White House falls on Scott Circle (north of the White House), which also features 23.5 degree angles;

and which you will see consists of a shortened and "pinched" Star of David, with an ellipse, and a point in it's center.

Now, if we add the pentagram to the hexagram in the DC map, wee see that the downward point of the pentagram also forms a 52 degree angle, and the wide points form 23.5 degree angles.

The Great Pyramid
Interestingly, the Great Pyramid now rests only 2125 meters south of exactly 30 degrees north (29d 58' 51" N), the point where the equilateral Star of David touches the circumference of the circle. However, neither the faces of the pyramid, nor the pyramid cross-section matches the equilateral triangles in the star.
The faces of the Pyramid have base angles of 58 degrees 18 minutes. The tangent of 58'18" is 1.618, the limit which the Phi realtionship approaches. The apothem (height of the face triangle) and half the base of the pyramid faces are in the phi relationship to one another.
When you place the bases of four 58'18" triangles together to form a square base, then bring the points together, the result is a pyramid with a 51'51" cross section. Or, in other words, if we lean a 58'18" triangle backwards (away from the viewer), the profile that it presents to us at pyramid height is 51'51". [Note that 51'51" is also very close to the latitude at which we find the Stonehenge.]
The cross section of the Pyramid is just right for the height of the structure to relate by multiples of Pi to the perimeter, as the radius of a circle or sphere relates to it's circumference. With circles and spheres the formula is C = Pi D (Diameter of circle times Pi). It can also be written, Pi 2 r, since D = 2r.
R would be the radius of the circle of sphere, so the circumference would be 2 Pi times the radius. In pyramid terms, r is the height of the pyramid (analagous to the radius of a sphere), and the perimeter is the circumference, so P = 2 Pi h, or P/2 = h Pi. P/2 is half the perimeter, or two sides; so the height times pi equals two pyramid (52) base sides.
The pyramid with ~52 degree base angles is located at ~30 north latitude, the point where equilateral triangles inscribed in a circle touch that circle. If we reduce the height of an equilateral triangle until it forms a 52 degree triangle, the diagonals change from being 30 degrees to 23.5 degrees just like the tropics.
