asked 08/17/17Is it true that it is impossible to divide a circle in half?
Given that pi cannot be divided in half, does it follow that circle can not be divided in half? If so, what implications does this have?

Anytime you fold a circle along its diameter, you have divided it in half. As Arturo commented, you can divide π by 2.

I wonder if he meant to bisect the circle, using only a compass.
