As $π$ $pi$ is a positive transcendental (never-ending) string of digits = 3.14159265... it is tautological to say $| π |$ $|pi|$ .

Already $π$ $pi$ is a positive constant. So, saying $| π |$ $|pi|$ is tautology.

$| π | = π$ $|pi|=pi$

The absolute value functuon $| ∙ |$ $|•|$ gives the distance of a real number from $0$ $0$ on the number line. That is,

$| x | = x$ $|x|= x$ if $x \geq 0$ $x>=0$
$| x | = - x$ $|x|=-x$ if $x < 0$ $x <0$

As $π > 0$ $pi>0$ , then, $| π | = π$ $|pi|=pi$
