In geometry, a golden rectangle is a rectangle with side lengths in golden ratio +:, or :, with approximately equal to 1.618 or 89/55. Golden rectangles exhibit a special form of self-similarity : if a square is added to the long side, or removed from the short side, the result is a golden rectangle as well.
Construction of a golden rectangle Construct a simple square; Draw a line from the midpoint of one side of the square to an opposite corner; Use that line as the radius to draw an arc that defines the height of the rectangle; Use the endpoints of the arc to complete the rectangle; The proportions of the resulting rectangle is φ or

A golden rectangle with long side a + b and short side a can be divided into two pieces: a similar golden rectangle (shaded red, right) with long side a and short side b and a square (shaded blue, left) with sides of length a. This illustrates the relationship a + b / a = a / b = φ.
