Archimedes was there to clear it up after thousands of years of opinions. He drew this:
He said that if the circle inside have a diameter of one, it will have a circumference of pi. The little square inside has a perimeter or the square root of eight, about 2.8. the other square has a perimeter of 4. So pi must lie between 4 and 2.8.
All I can say is that Archimedes work amazes me more than anything.
