It doesn't work in reality. You don't get any closer to a circle by constantly chunking a square. You aren't making any sides rounder by making more edges. A curve is not an infinite series of straight lines.
it does work, you can draw a circle by chunking a square. imagine you have to draw a circle on a computer screen. you will use little squares because the screen is made of pixels. and using those you can create a circle. observe:
see, a circle
! and if you zoom in, you will see its made of little squares, so why is the total length of the circumference not 4* R but 3.14 * R
?

cuz d=1 circles perimeter is pi and the squares perimeter is 4, the circle made out of "chopped square to infinity" is bigger even in infinity.
/e tho I am curious how it's proven mathematically
exactly
i need mathematical proof! something is wrong but i dont know what
!
