What a lovely question!

Actually pie value is not exactly 22/7 or 3.14 therefrom in decimal form.

When we draw a circle with certain radius and measure the circumference with some intelligent technique and get the ratio of the circumference to its diameter we will be getting a value in which there is no end of the decimal. It would continue to any extent even with thousands of decimal places. And the beauty is it never ends. Such an interesting value is got. That is pie. Some people have made Guinness record in writing those decimal values without any miss. Seems an Indian has succeeded in doing so.

In trigonometry this pie has got unit known to be radian. Just for convenience man has brought the degree concept for easy manipulation. So pie equals to 180 degree in trigonometry calcualtions.
