# GH_Circle class

Namespace: [Grasshopper.Kernel.Types](https://developer.rhino3d.com/api/gh1/namespace/grasshopper.kernel.types.md) · Assembly: [Grasshopper](https://developer.rhino3d.com/api/gh1/assembly/grasshopper.md)

```cs
public class GH_Circle : GH_GeometricGoo<Circle>, IGH_BakeAwareData, IGH_PreviewData
```

Represents a 3D circle. GH_Circle re-implements the OpenNURBS OnCircle class.

## Constructors

- [GH_Circle](https://developer.rhino3d.com/api/gh1/type/grasshopper.kernel.types.gh-circle/ctor.md): (3 overloads) Default constructor

## Properties

- [Boundingbox](https://developer.rhino3d.com/api/gh1/type/grasshopper.kernel.types.gh-circle/boundingbox.md): Gets the boundingbox for this geometry.
- [ClippingBox](https://developer.rhino3d.com/api/gh1/type/grasshopper.kernel.types.gh-circle/clippingbox.md)
- [IsValid](https://developer.rhino3d.com/api/gh1/type/grasshopper.kernel.types.gh-circle/isvalid.md): Gets the validity of this instance. Circles are valid when their base planes are valid and when the radius is larger than zero.
- [IsValidWhyNot](https://developer.rhino3d.com/api/gh1/type/grasshopper.kernel.types.gh-circle/isvalidwhynot.md): Gets a string describing the state of "invalidness". If the instance is valid, then this property should return Nothing or String.Empty.
- [TypeDescription](https://developer.rhino3d.com/api/gh1/type/grasshopper.kernel.types.gh-circle/typedescription.md)
- [TypeName](https://developer.rhino3d.com/api/gh1/type/grasshopper.kernel.types.gh-circle/typename.md)
