Abstract: It is shown how to use bayesian theorem in estimating the parameters of a circle when angular differences between successive data points are known. The posterior distribution of the radius and consequently the confidence interval for the radius are derived.

Key words: bayesian hypothesis, bayesian theorem, posterior distribution, maximum posterior estimation
