Squaring the circle the circular arc b around O with radius , it results S'. Bisect the line segment in D and draw the semicircle b over D. Draw a straight line from O through C up to the semicircle b, it cuts b in E. The line segment is the mean proportional between and , also called geometric mean. Extend the line segment beyond O and transfer twice more, it results F and A, and thus the length of the line segment with the above described approximation value of formula_3, the half circumference of the circle. Bisect the line segment in G
Fife Circle Line line from Inverkeithing that loops back round to Kirkcaldy by an inland route via Cowdenbeath through the old Fife coalfield. Narrowly speaking, just this line could be called the Fife Circle. The current service is actually a combination of two previously separate local routes - Edinburgh to Kirkcaldy & Edinburgh to & . During the 1970s & 80s British Rail only ran a regular daytime service on the Dunfermline line as far as Cowdenbeath; & Cardenden were only served during the weekday business peaks (as can be seen from Table 242 of the UK All Line timetable of that era),
