The Bertrand paradox question is: “Consider a unit-radius circle for which the length of a side of an inscribed equilateral triangle equals 3 . Determine the probability that the length of a ‘random’ chord of a unit-radius circle has length greater than 3 .” Bertrand derived three different ‘correct’ answers, the correctness depending on interpretation of the word, random. Here we employ geomet...

the problem of the hermeneutical circle is one of the contentious issues in philosophical hermeneutics. this paper, begins with focusing on the question as to whether what hermeneuts mean by a hermeneutical circle is in fact a real circle with no analogical sense involved. recognizing that this problem is not confined to the relation between part and whole, this study confines itself to explore...

A circle n-gon is the region between n non-crossing chords of a circle; the sides of a circle n-gon are either chords or arcs of the circle. A circle n-gon graph is the intersection graph of a family of circle n-gons in a circle. The family of circle trapezoid graphs is exactly the family of circle 2-gon graphs and the family of circle graphs is exactly the family of circle 1-gon graphs. The fa...
