Re: [math-fun] Fun exam questions

Of course one can draw a circle --- one just can't see the result! WFL On 6/24/14, Guy Haworth <g.haworth@reading.ac.uk> wrote:

FL makes good inroads into the topic of 'drawing a circle'.

I'd assumed the compasses came with a suitably sharp pencil but that was not stated.

So ... pencil, [maybe pencil sharpener], paper, table ... and an 'agent' to do the drawing are required too.

A nice point that 'Systems Engineers' ought to make.

But [clue] what is a circle, and can one draw one?
