Two Lines Determine a Circle
![]() To understand why this phenomenon is so, notice that the light blue point of intersection goes around the circle twice for every single 360° rotation of the lines. This is just another way of observing that the central angle of an arc of a circle is twice any angle drawn from any point on the circle itself. The two red pivot points can now be seen as two such points on a circle. ![]() "Two Lines Determine a Circle" from The Wolfram Demonstrations Project http://demonstrations.wolfram.com/TwoLinesDetermineACircle/ Contributed by: John Kiehl | ||||||||||||||
