Abstract:

An interactive applet and associated web page that demonstrate the diameter of a circle. The applet shows a circle and a diameter line, the ends of which can be dragged to show that the diameter passes through the center and has a constant length regardless of where on the circle it is drawn. The web page has the circle-related formulae. Applet can be enlarged to full screen size for use with a classroom projector. This resource is a component of the Math Open Reference Interactive Geometry textbook project at http://www.mathopenref.com.
