Splitting A Circle Evenly |
2006-12-20 |
|
From Joe:
I'm trying to make a game board and instead of having it square, I would like to give it a curve (the game is Parcheesi). The attached diagram is pretty much completed (done in AutoCAD). What I would like to know is how to manually find the points that intersect the red line. In other words, evenly split the semi-circle into 8 pieces.

Dividing a Circle |
1999-04-12 |
|
From Mike Kenedy:
I am having trouble with a homework question for bonus marks. A Circle is continually divided by lines that do not intersect the center so that they produce the most pieces of circle. For example - 1 line divides the circle into 2.
- 2 into 4.
- 3, however into 7.
- 4 into11
- 5 into 16
- 6 into 22
- 7 into 29
- 8 into 37
- etc...
I am stumped and cannot figure out the equation, though I'm sure it involves squares. Can you help?
