Assume the diameter(height) of a circle is four.
Make an infinite amount of lines parallel to the diameter, all the way until you get to a line tangent to the circle.
My calculations tell me this would be the sum of the infinite numbers in between the lengths 0 and 4 divided by the number of the infinite number of chords parallel to the diameter, which would be the average length of the height of the circle as a whole.
So (0 ... 4)/∞, which doesn't make sense. I can tell I need a calculus-knowledgable person to help me out here.
I tried to explain what I'm trying to get on Yahoo Answers and failed miserably.
Help?
