Roundabout

There more to this shape than what meets the eye! Come explore…

Which shape can be defined as a plane figure whose boundary consists of points equidistant from a fixed point? A simple circle! But there’s nothing simple about this shape.

You can find circles all around us, like in the sun, the moon, and even in things like tree rings and flowers. The circle represents things that are complete and never-ending, like the cycle of seasons or the idea of forever. The circle’s symmetrical nature and lack of distinct edges create a sense of balance and equality, reflecting ideals of fairness and inclusivity.

In math, circles are super important because they help us understand shapes and their properties. The equation of a circle holds a special place in mathematics, allowing us to calculate its properties and relationships with other shapes. The concept of pi (π) is closely tied to circles, helping us find their circumference, area, and explore their unique properties.

Before you begin to explore the shape further, you need to know the important parts of a circle. For instance, the circumference is the perimeter of the circle or the distance around a circle.
