> Wait, what? The golden ratio's in there?! No. Way! That's so cool. And the solution it's some random garbage, but pretty regimented. Neat-o! The golden ratio is the solution to x(x-1) = 1. And its reciprocal is the solution to x(x+1) = 1. This equation is probably the simplest equation with irrational solutions aside from x*x = 2 and hence appears all over the place in mathematics.
