Lune Millennium Bridge Lune Millennium Bridge The Lune Millennium Bridge is a cable-stayed footbridge which spans the River Lune in Lancaster, England. It was designed by Whitby Bird and Partners, and built at a cost of £1.8m to commemorate the millennium of 2000. The bridge forms a "Y"-shape in plan to connect one bank both to a viaduct and adjacent quay. Its double pylon seeks to act as a reminder of the masted ships which previously used the quay. It features a main gangway of just over 30 metres and masts around 40 metres tall. The bridge is part of the National Cycle
Lune of Hippocrates give the only constructible squarable lunes; in particular, there are no constructible squarable convex lunes. Lune of Hippocrates In geometry, the lune of Hippocrates, named after Hippocrates of Chios, is a lune bounded by arcs of two circles, the smaller of which has as its diameter a chord spanning a right angle on the larger circle. Equivalently, it is a non-convex plane region bounded by one 180-degree circular arc and one 90-degree circular arc. It is the first curved figure to have its exact area calculated mathematically. Hippocrates wanted to solve the classic problem of squaring the circle, i.e. constructing
