circle is a shape consisting of all points in a plane that are at a given distance from a


given point, the centre. Equivalently, it is the curve traced out by a point that moves in a
plane so that its distance from a given point is constant. The distance between any point
of the circle and the centre is called the radius. Usually, the radius is required to be a

positive number. A circle with   is a degenerate case. This article is about circles
in Euclidean geometry, and, in particular, the Euclidean plane, except where otherwise
noted.
Specifically, a circle is a simple closed curve that divides the plane into two regions: an
interior and an exterior. In everyday use, the term "circle" may be used interchangeably
to refer to either the boundary of the figure, or to the whole figure including its interior; in
strict technical usage, the circle is only the boundary and the whole figure is called
a disc.
A circle may also be defined as a special kind of ellipse in which the two foci are
coincident, the eccentricity is 0, and the semi-major and semi-minor axes are equal; or
the two-dimensional shape enclosing the most area per unit perimeter squared,
using calculus of variations.

Euclid's definition
A circle is a plane figure bounded by one curved line, and such that all straight lines
drawn from a certain point within it to the bounding line, are equal. The bounding line is
called its circumference and the point, its centre.

— Euclid, Elements, Book I[1]: 4 

Topological definition
In the field of topology, a circle is not limited to the geometric concept, but to all of
its homeomorphisms. Two topological circles are equivalent if one can be transformed
into the other via a deformation of R3 upon itself (known as an ambient isotopy).[2]

Terminology
 Annulus: a ring-shaped object, the region bounded by
two concentric circles.
 Arc: any connected part of a circle. Specifying two end
points of an arc and a center allows for two arcs that
together make up a full circle.
 Centre: the point equidistant from all points on the circle.
 Chord: a line segment whose endpoints lie on the circle,
thus dividing a circle into two segments.
 Circumference: the length of one circuit along the circle, or
the distance around the circle.
 Diameter: a line segment whose endpoints lie on the circle
and that passes through the centre; or the length of such a
line segment. This is the largest distance between any two
points on the circle. It is a special case of a chord, namely
the longest chord for a given circle, and its length is twice
the length of a radius.
 Disc: the region of the plane bounded by a circle.
 Lens: the region common to (the intersection of) two
overlapping discs.
 Passant: a coplanar straight line that has no point in
common with the circle.
 Radius: a line segment joining the centre of a circle with
any single point on the circle itself; or the length of such a
segment, which is half (the length of) a diameter.
 Sector: a region bounded by two radii of equal length with a
common center and either of the two possible arcs,
determined by this center and the endpoints of the radii.
 Segment: a region bounded by a chord and one of the arcs
connecting the chord's endpoints. The length of the chord
imposes a lower boundary on the diameter of possible
arcs. Sometimes the term segment is used only for regions
not containing the center of the circle to which their arc
belongs to.
 Secant: an extended chord, a coplanar straight line,
intersecting a circle in two points.
 Semicircle: one of the two possible arcs determined by the
endpoints of a diameter, taking its midpoint as center. In
non-technical common usage it may mean the interior of
the two dimensional region bounded by a diameter and one
of its arcs, that is technically called a half-disc. A half-disc
is a special case of a segment, namely the largest one.
 Tangent: a coplanar straight line that has one single point
in common with a circle ("touches the circle at this point").
All of the specified regions may be considered as open, that is, not containing their
boundaries, or as closed, including their respective boundaries.

History

The compass in this 13th-century manuscript is a symbol of God's act of Creation. Notice also the circular
shape of the halo.

The word circle derives from the Greek κίρκος/κύκλος (kirkos/kuklos), itself


a metathesis of the Homeric Greek κρίκος (krikos), meaning "hoop" or "ring".[3] The
origins of the words circus and circuit are closely related.

The circle has been known since before the beginning of recorded history. Natural
circles would have been observed, such as the Moon, Sun, and a short plant stalk
blowing in the wind on sand, which forms a circle shape in the sand. The circle is the
basis for the wheel, which, with related inventions such as gears, makes much of
modern machinery possible. In mathematics, the study of the circle has helped inspire
the development of geometry, astronomy and calculus.
Early science, particularly geometry and astrology and astronomy, was connected to the
divine for most medieval scholars, and many believed that there was something
intrinsically "divine" or "perfect" that could be found in circles.[4][5]
Some highlights in the history of the circle are:

 1700 BCE – The Rhind papyrus gives a method to find the


area of a circular field. The result corresponds
to 256/81 (3.16049...) as an approximate value of π.[6]
Tughrul Tower from inside

 300 BCE – Book 3 of Euclid's Elements deals with the


properties of circles.
 In Plato's Seventh Letter there is a detailed definition and
explanation of the circle. Plato explains the perfect circle,
and how it is different from any drawing, words, definition or
explanation.
 1880 CE – Lindemann proves that π is transcendental,
effectively settling the millennia-old problem of squaring the
circle.[7]

Analytic results
Circumference
Main article: Circumference
The ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter is π (pi),
an irrational constant approximately equal to 3.141592654. Thus the circumference C is
related to the radius r and diameter d by:

Area enclosed

Area enclosed by a circle = π × area of the shaded square

Main article: Area of a circle


As proved by Archimedes, in his Measurement of a Circle,
the area enclosed by a circle is equal to that of a triangle
whose base has the length of the circle's circumference
and whose height equals the circle's radius,[8] which comes
to π multiplied by the radius squared:

Equivalently, denoting diameter by d,

that is, approximately 79% of


the circumscribing square (whose side is of
length d).
The circle is the plane curve enclosing the
maximum area for a given arc length. This relates
the circle to a problem in the calculus of variations,
namely the isoperimetric inequality.
Equations
Cartesian coordinates

Circle of radius r = 1, centre (a, b) = (1.2, −0.5)

Equation of a circle
In an x–y Cartesian coordinate system, the circle
with centre coordinates (a, b) and radius r is the set
of all points (x, y) such that

This equation, known as the equation of the


circle, follows from the Pythagorean
theorem applied to any point on the circle: as
shown in the adjacent diagram, the radius is the
hypotenuse of a right-angled triangle whose
other sides are of length |x − a| and |y − b|. If the
circle is centred at the origin (0, 0), then the
equation simplifies to

Parametric form
The equation can be written in parametric
form using the trigonometric functions sine
and cosine as

where t is a parametric variable in the


range 0 to 2π, interpreted
geometrically as the angle that the
ray from (a, b) to (x, y) makes with
the positive x axis.
An alternative parametrisation of the
circle is

In this parameterisation, the


ratio of t to r can be
interpreted geometrically as
the stereographic projection of
the line passing through the
centre parallel to the x axis
(see Tangent half-angle
substitution). However, this
parameterisation works only
if t is made to range not only
through all reals but also to a
point at infinity; otherwise, the
leftmost point of the circle
would be omitted.
3-point form
The equation of the circle
determined by three points 
 not on a line is
obtained by a conversion of
the 3-point form of a circle
equation:

Homogeneous form
In homogeneous
coordinates, each conic
section with the equation
of a circle has the form

It can be proven that a


conic section is a circle
exactly when it
contains (when
extended to
the complex projective
plane) the points I(1: i:
0) and J(1: −i: 0).
These points are called
the circular points at
infinity.
Polar coordinates
In polar coordinates,
the equation of a circle
is

where a is the
radius of the circle, 

 are the
polar coordinates of
a generic point on
the circle, and 

 are the
polar coordinates of
the centre of the
circle (i.e., r0 is the
distance from the
origin to the centre
of the circle,
and φ is the
anticlockwise angle
from the
positive x axis to
the line connecting
the origin to the
centre of the circle).
For a circle centred
on the origin,
i.e. r0 = 0, this
reduces to
simply r = a.
When r0 = a, or
when the origin lies
on the circle, the
equation becomes

In the general
case, the
equation can be
solved for r,
giving

Note that
without the
± sign, the
equation
would in
some cases
describe
only half a
circle.

In
the complex
plane, a
circle with a
centre
at c and
radius r has
the equation
