Question

anonymous · Answer

Claire, since she is using a computer, she will type in her parameters and the computer will generate the perfectly square inscribed circle.

Oliver will have a difficult and labor intensive workload. He will have to use the protractor to make a perfect circle and will have to mark the center point. From that center point he will have to draw two perpendicular lines that form a "T" and go through entire diameter of his circle. He then has to make four more perpendicular lines that go from the ends of the "T"  outward in both directions. he will then erase the extra length from these lines and erase the lines drawn inside of his circle following that he will be done and he may have small errors unlike claire
