The Córdoba Mosque was designed with the proportional Pythagorean system that is based on the side of a square (= 1), its diagonal (= √2), and the successive proportional rectangles that are formed with the diagonal of the previous rectangle. The 8th century mosque had a square ground plan, its 9th century prolongation formed a √2 rectangle; the enlargement of the patio gave a √3 rectangle; the extension of al-Hakam II used a √3 rectangle plan at a reduced scale; and that of Almanzor used two large √3 rectangles.
