PR is the diameter of a circle centered on O; its radius AO is the arithmetic mean of a and b. Using the geometric mean theorem, triangle PGR's altitude GQ is the geometric mean. For any ratio a:b, AO ≥ GQ. A semicircle can be used to construct the arithmetic and geometric means of two lengths using straight-edge and compass.
The rise (height) of a round arch is limited to 1 ⁄ 2 of its span, [7] so it looks more "grounded" than a parabolic arch [3] or a pointed arch. [7] Whenever a higher semicircular arch was required (for example, for a narrow arch to match the height of a nearby broad one), either stilting or horseshoe shape were used, thus creating a stilted arch and horseshoe arch respectively. [8]

The Wigner semicircle distribution, named after the physicist Eugene Wigner, is the probability distribution defined on the domain [−R, R] whose probability density function f is a scaled semicircle, i.e. a semi-ellipse, centered at (0, 0):
The salinon (red) and the circle (blue) have the same area. The salinon (meaning 'salt-cellar' in Greek) is a geometrical figure that consists of four semicircles . It was first introduced in the Book of Lemmas , a work attributed to Archimedes .

A fixed-wing aircraft may have more than one wing plane, stacked one above another: Biplane: two wing planes of similar size, stacked one above the other.The biplane is inherently lighter and stronger than a monoplane and was the most common configuration until the 1930s.
