No, \(\pi\) (pi) is not a rational number. A rational number is defined as a number that can be expressed as the quotient of two integers, where the denominator is not zero. However, \(\pi\) is an irrational number, which means it cannot be expressed as a simple fraction. The decimal representation of \(\pi\) is non-repeating and non-terminating, approximately equal to 3.14159. This property confirms its status as an irrational number.
