Create a circle from three points lying in the XY-plane

Parameters

• a (sequence of float) – XY(Z) coordinates of a 2D or 3D point (Z will be ignored).

• b (sequence of float) – XY(Z) coordinates of a 2D or 3D point (Z will be ignored).

• c (sequence of float) – XY(Z) coordinates of a 2D or 3D point (Z will be ignored).

Returns

tuple – XYZ coordinates of center in the XY-plane (Z = 0.0) and radius of the circle.
