Arithmetic Relating to the Number 432
or
The Secret of Nine
The number 432 appears in various catagories and forms (432,000, etc.) in different cultures throughout history.The following is a composition of various aspects and forms the number 432 takes, and the effects it has in our everyday lives.

Some interesting arithmetic related to the number 432:
4+3+2=9
9x9=81
1/81 = 12345678
8/81= 98765432
98765432 x 9 = 888888888
12345678 x 9 = 111111111
432x432=186624 (close to the accepted universal constant speed of light)
186624 /9 /9 /9 /9 /9 = 3.16 (similar to the value of pi)
In the so-called "magic number" sequence of the periodic table of elements - 2,8,20,28,50,82,126 = sum = 316 (see immediately above).
12 x 360 = 4320 (link between the number 12 and 432, degrees in a circle, etc.)
Diameters Of The Sun And Moon
The diameter of the sun is 864,000 miles (2 x 432). The diameter of the moon is 2160 miles (432 / 2).
Comment - These ratios and numbers, combined with the cycle of the Precession of the Equinoxes of the Earth at 25,920 years (60x432), form an astounding coincidence, at the very least. Despite popular opinion that there may be billions and billions of worlds in the Universe, the odds are billions and billions to one that any such ratios prevail anywhere else.
Heart Beat
A healthy, athletic adult at rest has a heart rate of 60 beats to the minute. 60 X 60 minutes X 24 hours = 86,400 beats per day.
Comment - This may be one of the reasons why the number 60 is so common in metrology. It also gives humans a special relationship to the cosmos, in the sense that it links a fundamental physiological property of the human species to the cosmic geometry symbolized by the number 432.
Latitude of Stonehenge
Stonehenge is located at 51 degrees, 10 minutes, 42.35294118 seconds North latitude, and 51 x 10 x 42.3529 = 21,600, i.e. (432 / 2).
Comment - This is either an extraordinary coincidence; or the originators of Stonehenge knew a lot more about astronomy, geophysics, and geometry than they've been given credit for. It was the Greek astronomer Hipparchos (ca. 190 - 125 B.C.) who is credited with covering the sphere of the earth with meridians and parallels. Following the Babylonian method of dividing circles and angles according to the sexagesimal system he created a grid of 360 lines running from the North to the South Pole and 180 lines running parallel to the equator. All this was done, however, thousands of years after the building of Stonehenge.
Precession of the Equinoxes
The Earth's axis is inclined at 23.5 degrees to the plane of its elliptical orbit around the sun. As the Earth rotates it experiences precession, like the wobbling of a top. This wobble causes the direction of the north celestial pole to change in a circular path over time. This motion is called precession of the equinoxes and occurs in a full cycle every 25,920 years (60 x 432).
Speed of Sound in Granite
The speed of sound through granite rock at room temperature (about 72 degrees) is 12,960 feet per second.
Comment - Sound waves need some type of matter as a carrier. Their speed is affected by the density and temperature of the substance through which they travel. At higher temperatures the speed of sound increases. This particular measurement (3 x 432), ties a primary property of stone to the cosmic geometry symbolized by the number 432. Coupled with the known power of acoustics to modify the physical properties of substances, this measurement suggests intriguing links between sound, stones, and the number 432. ,
Square Root of the Speed of Light
Einstein's famous equation of energy and matter - E=mc2 - leads to one of the most profound instances of the occurrence of the number 432. In the equation, E= energy, m = matter, and c = the universal constant speed of light. The speed of light is generally accepted to be 186,291 miles per second in a vacuum. However, the square of the number 432 is 186,624. If the universal constant speed of light were in fact 186,624, then the number 432 would be the square root of the speed of light. The deviation is small enough be be accounted for by several possibilities:
(1) Variation in our understanding of the length of the "mile", i.e. 5280 feet.
(2) Known anomalies in the theory of general relativity.
The Egyptian sacred pyramid inch is .0011 inches longer than our inch. 186,291 (accepted speed of light) x 1.0011 = 186496 or 99.931429 percent of 186,624. The speed of light, if calculated using the slightly longer sacred pyramid inch, is extraordinarily close to the square of 432.
Comment - Presume for a moment that you do not know the speed of light, but are aware of the equation E=mc2. An intuitive scientist who substituted the number 432 for "c" in the equation would be very close, if not precise, in the determination of this universal constant, that is, E=m(432)4. This illustrates the important concept of "reverse engineering" to find unknown quantities and constants by use of the cosmic number 432 and its multiples and divisors.
