Originally a [Stanford gem](https://whenmathhappens.com/2014/08/29/broken-circles/), I’d like to convert Broken Circles into a Desmos activity. I was able to construct the 3 main circles, and am just trying to think of a clever way to do this collaborative activity at a distance, any suggestions? Thanks!

This is a great idea! Did you ever create the activity?
