Constructing the Diameter of a Circle

Given a circle, students will construct a diameter of the circle. They will use the following theorem: In the same circle, if one chord is a perpendicular bisector of another chord, then the first chord is a diameter.

NUMB3RS - Season 3 - "Finders Keepers" - Barging In

In "Finders Keepers," the body of a diver is found in the ocean. The body is traced to a salvage barge that has a bloody handprint on it. After further investigation, it is discovered that the blood is not from the dead diver, but someone else murdered on the barge. In order to find the other vic...
