Theater Seating

This app uses the circle theorems of inscribed angles and intersected arcs to explore alternate seating arrangements in a movie theater (or a concert hall). Students choose their favorite seat, then determine what alternatives exist which maintain the same viewing angle. Reflections on the exercise can be extended to examine how theaters decide ticket prices depending upon the location of the seats in the hall.
