Imagine a circular wheel rolling, without skidding, on a flat, horizontal surface. The of any given point on its is called a . It is a with over the 's circumference and has whenever the point is in contact with the surface (the two sides of the curve are tangentially vertical at that point).

Interestingly, the length of the path that a point on the circumference takes during one whole revolution of the circle is precisely equal to the length of the perimeter of the smallest square that contains the circle.
