Sorry to be late, but it's even more interesting (and perhaps beautiful) to state this:

e^(j*pi) + 1 = 0

In this format of Euler's equation, you relate the 5 most special numbers in one equation: e (the natural log base), pi (the ratio of a circle's diameter to its circumference), j (the EE's way of writing the square root of -1), 1 (the multiplicative identity), and 0 (the additive identity).

Gorgeous, huh?
