Circumscribe Definition
The term ‘circumscribe’ is derived from Latin terms ‘circum’ (meaning around) and ‘scribere’ (meaning to write).Circumscribe means to set limits or to restrict. In the context of geometrical drawings, the term refers to the lines or circles drawn outside or around a structure. The outer structure may touch the apex of the inner figure. For example, a circular design over a square. Artists create circumscribed art work.
