The resolution acknowledges the historical significance of the mathematical constant π (pi), which represents the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter. It highlights the contributions of ancient mathematicians and the evolution of the symbol π, first used by William Jones in 1706 and popularized by Leonhard Euler. The resolution also notes the ongoing pursuit of precision in calculating π through various methods and celebrates Pi Day on March 14th, which symbolizes the first three digits of π and promotes appreciation for mathematics, science, and education.

Furthermore, the resolution encourages educational institutions, community organizations, and individuals to engage in activities that foster understanding and appreciation of mathematics on Pi Day. It declares March 14th as a day to commemorate the history of π and reflects on the contributions of mathematicians throughout history. The resolution concludes by directing the Secretary of State to transmit a certified copy to the President of the Rhode Island Mathematics Teachers Association.
