COMMENTS
"The square root of 3, the 2nd number, after root 2, to be proved irrational, by Theodorus."
Length of a diagonal between any vertex of the unit cube and the one corresponding (opposite) vertex not part of the three faces meeting at the original vertex. (Diagonal is hypotenuse of a triangle with sides 1 and sqrt(2)). Hence the diameter of the sphere circumscribed around the unit cube; the ratio of the diameter of any sphere to the edge length of its inscribed cube. - Rick L. Shepherd, Jun 09 2005
The square root of 3 is the length of the minimal Y-shaped (symmetrical) network linking three points unit distance apart. - Lekraj Beedassy, Apr 12 2006
Continued fraction expansion is 1 followed by {1, 2} repeated. - Harry J. Smith, Jun 01 2009
Ratio of base length to leg length in the isosceles "vampire" triangle, that is, the only isosceles triangle without reflection triangle. The product of cosines of the internal angles of a triangle with sides 1, 1 and sqrt(3) and all similar triangles is -3/8. Hence its reflection triangle is degenerate. See the link below. - Martin Janecke, May 09 2013
Half of the surface of regular octahedron with unit edge ( A010469), and one fifth that of a regular icosahedron with unit edge (i.e., 2* A010527). - Stanislav Sykora, Nov 30 2013
Diameter of a sphere whose surface area equals 3*Pi. More generally, the square root of x is also the diameter of a sphere whose surface area equals x*Pi. - Omar E. Pol, Nov 11 2018
Sometimes called Theodorus's constant, after the ancient Greek mathematician Theodorus of Cyrene (5th century BC). - Amiram Eldar, Apr 02 2022
For any triangle ABC, cotan(A) + cotan(B) + cotan(C) >= sqrt(3); equality is obtained only when the triangle is equilateral (see the Kiran S. Kedlaya link). - Bernard Schott, Sep 13 2022

The decimal expansion of sqrt(50) = 5*sqrt(2) = 7.0710678118654752440... gives essentially the same sequence.
Also real and imaginary part of the square root of the imaginary unit. - Alonso del Arte, Jan 07 2011
1/sqrt(2) = (1/2)^(1/2) = (1/4)^(1/4) (see the comments in A072364).
If a triangle has sides whose lengths form a harmonic progression in the ratio 1 : 1/(1 + d) : 1/(1 + 2d) then the triangle inequality condition requires that d be in the range -1 + 1/sqrt(2) < d < 1/sqrt(2). - Frank M Jackson, Oct 11 2011
Let s_2(n) be the sum of the base-2 digits of n and epsilon(n) = (-1)^s_2(n), the Thue-Morse sequence A010060, then Product_{n >= 0} ((2*n + 1)/(2*n + 2))^epsilon(n) = 1/sqrt(2). - Jonathan Vos Post, Jun 03 2012
The square root of 1/2 and thus it follows from the Pythagorean theorem that it is the sine of 45 degrees (and the cosine of 45 degrees). - Alonso del Arte, Sep 24 2012

Has been also called the silver number, also the plastic number.
This is the smallest Pisot-Vijayaraghavan number.
The name "plastic number" goes back to the Dutch Benedictine monk and architect Dom Hans van der Laan, who gave this name 4 years after the discovery of the number by the French engineer Gérard Cordonnier in 1924, who used the name "radiant number". - Hugo Pfoertner, Oct 07 2018

Given any complex p such that real(p)>-1, this constant is the only real solution of the equation z^p+z^(p+1)=z^(p+3), and the only attractor of the complex mapping z->M(z,p), where M(z,p)=(z^p+z^(p+1))^(1/(p+3)), convergent from any complex plane point. - Stanislav Sykora, Oct 14 2021
The Pisot-Vijayaraghavan numbers were named after the French mathematician Charles Pisot (1910-1984) and the Indian mathematician Tirukkannapuram Vijayaraghavan (1902-1955). - Amiram Eldar, Apr 02 2022
The sequence a(n) = v_3^floor(n^2/4) where v_n is the smallest, positive, real solution to the equation (v_n)^n = v_n + 1 satisfies the Somos-5 recursion a(n+3)*a(n-2) = a(n+2)*a(n-1) + a(n+1)*a(n) for all n in Z. Also true if floor is removed. - Michael Somos, Mar 24 2023

Side length of the particular golden rhombus with diagonals 1 and phi ( A001622); area is phi/2 ( A019863). Thus, also the ratio side/(shorter diagonal) for any golden rhombus. Interior angles of a golden rhombus are always A105199 and A137218. - Rick L. Shepherd, Apr 10 2017
