Answer 18

The problem is the problem itself. Terminology and jargon filled.

If it was stated simply as "what is the shape you get when you draw points equal distance away from a given point", it might actually be less intimidating.

very true, GT but that is what EVERY book says a circle is

Unfortunate.

@philips13

Answer 32

Answer 33

when you say five inches from one and seven from the other you talkin bout the two coins ?

Answer 34

yes... instead of feet in the park we are using inches on the table

Answer 35

Is there anyplace else you can put something 7 inches from the coin on the left and 5 inches from the coin on the right?

Answer 36

or is that the only place on the table that is 7 inches from the coin on the left and 5 inches from the coin on the right?
