Circle (EntityTopic, 15)

From Hi.gher. Space


A circle refers to the surface of a perfectly symmetrical planar object.

Sometimes, the word circle is used to refer to the edge, while the filled in version is called a disc.

Equations

  • Variables:
r ⇒ radius of circle
  • All points (x, y) that lie on the surface of a circle will satisfy the following equation:
x2 + y2 = r2
total edge length = 2πr
area = πr2
[!x,!y] ⇒ digon of length (rcos(πn/2))

Homology groups

Any unstated homology group is the trivial group 0.
