  2. Semicircle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semicircle

    PR is the diameter of a circle centered on O; its radius AO is the arithmetic mean of a and b. Using the geometric mean theorem, triangle PGR's altitude GQ is the geometric mean. For any ratio a:b, AO ≥ GQ. A semicircle can be used to construct the arithmetic and geometric means of two lengths using straight-edge and compass.

  3. Stadium (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stadium_(geometry)

    A stadium is a two-dimensional geometric shape constructed of a rectangle with semicircles at a pair of opposite sides. [1] The same shape is known also as a pill shape, [2] discorectangle, [3] obround, [4] [5] or sausage body. [6] The shape is based on a stadium, a place used for athletics and horse racing tracks.

  6. Semicircular arch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semicircular_arch

    The rise (height) of a round arch is limited to 1 ⁄ 2 of its span, [7] so it looks more "grounded" than a parabolic arch [3] or a pointed arch. [7] Whenever a higher semicircular arch was required (for example, for a narrow arch to match the height of a nearby broad one), either stilting or horseshoe shape were used, thus creating a stilted arch and horseshoe arch respectively. [8]
