Golden Rectangle

Given a Rectangle having sides in the ratio $1:\phi$, the Golden Ratio $\phi$ is defined such that partitioning the original Rectangle into a Square and new Rectangle results in a new Rectangle having sides with a ratio $1:\phi$. Such a Rectangle is called a golden rectangle, and successive points dividing a golden rectangle into Squares lie on a Logarithmic Spiral.
