Kepler-Bouwkamp Constant

Kepler-Bouwkamp Constant is inverse to the polygon circumscribing constant. It is obtained by limiting the following sequence inside a circle. In a circle, inscribe a regular triangle, again engrave a circle inside the triangle. Inscribe a square inside the circle, followed by circle again, then inscribe the regular pentagon, circle, regular hexagon and the sequence goes on. The radius of this limiting circle is called as Kepler - Bouwkamp Constant or Polygon Inscribing constant. Its decimal constant value is 0.11494...
