Explain Circle till 12th grade

OpenStudy (anonymous):

whats the question?

OpenStudy (goformit100):

explain circle.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a circle is a shape thats circular

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and has no sides

OpenStudy (goformit100):

CIRCLE HAVE SIDES

OpenStudy (anonymous):

fine 1 side

OpenStudy (goformit100):

NOPE IT HAS N NUMBER OF SIDES

OpenStudy (goformit100):

if you want i can prove it to you with the help of @ParthKohli

OpenStudy (anonymous):

prove it then

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how much sides does it have?

Parth (parthkohli):

A circle is a closed curve which has all points on its circumference equidistant from a fixed centre.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so how much sides then?

Parth (parthkohli):

The question isn't relevant; circle is not a polygon.

OpenStudy (goformit100):

@ParthKohli plz draw a circle for us

Parth (parthkohli):

|dw:1349278352508:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i cant you draw one

OpenStudy (goformit100):

and for your kind information @ParthKohli circle is a polygon

Parth (parthkohli):

@goformit100 Not at all, nope... circle is not a polygon.

OpenStudy (goformit100):

|dw:1349278392469:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

SOW HOW MUCH SIDES THEN?

OpenStudy (goformit100):

it is really a polygon .... believe me... i can prove it to you

Parth (parthkohli):

All polygons consist of line segments—circle doesn't. It's a curvature.

OpenStudy (goformit100):

ok.... @ParthKohli what does the arrows indicate

Parth (parthkohli):

@goformit100: That's such a bad proof. We are talking about perfect circles.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so is it one side or many?

Parth (parthkohli):

There are no "sides" in a circle... it's just a curve.

OpenStudy (goformit100):

let us imagine those arrows as velocity vectors.... then what can you say @ParthKohli about the motion of the particle|dw:1349278671037:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a curve is a side

Parth (parthkohli):

There are infinite such vectors, and all polygons have finite number of sides.

OpenStudy (goformit100):

@ParthKohli and @Bgarza95 can we say that the the motion of the particle is at constant distance from the center . Reply Yes/No

OpenStudy (goformit100):

and will chang at each and every point .

OpenStudy (goformit100):

Reply ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

IM CONFUSED NOW WHAT HAVE YOU DONE NOW IM RWALLY CONFUSED!!!!!!!!!!!

Parth (parthkohli):

chang?

OpenStudy (goformit100):

*change

OpenStudy (goformit100):

Are u agreeing with this fact ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OK thats it im putting an end to all this arguing . a circle has only 1 side and that is it ok it does NOT have infinite sides OK!!!!!

OpenStudy (goformit100):

So we can say that each vector dawn is acting like a side with a vector drawn from it

OpenStudy (goformit100):

The above drawing of vector can be drawn n number of times

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A circle is not a polygon. Archimedes method of exhaustion not withstanding.
