| Description: |
Are there a certain number of arbitrary points such that there exists a unique circle through them? To explore and conjecture an answer to this question, students will construct circles passing through various numbers of given points. This activity was adapted from an activity developed by Sean Jones, a fourth year pre-service teacher at the University of Virginia in Spring 1998. |
