Pi wasn't invented so much as discovered. Pi is the ratio of a circle's circumference divided by the diameter. One could say that no one invented it, but that it was discovered. The Egyptians and the Greeks had an a approximation that we are still refining to this day. It is a transcendental (non-rational) number.
