In this program we explore the properties of circles. We do this in the context of two real-world applications. In the first, we look at the design of the Roman Coliseum and explore how circular shapes could have been used to design this elliptical structure. In the second application we look at the Roman Pantheon, specifically its spherical dome, to see how the properties of chords and secants help clarify its unique design.

The Roman Pantheon is a domed structure that shows a keen awareness of the position of the sun throughout the year. The source of light from the top of the dome allows for the exploration of chords, inscribed angles, central angles, and intercepted arcs.
