Description:	Brief description of the mathematical problem how to change circular motion into linear motion culminating in the solution that describes straight line as a circle with infinite radius. Fore more detailed historical description of the problem see the tutorial "How to Draw a Straight Line". For detailed mathematics of the Peaucellier-Lipkin Linkage see "Mathematical Tutorial of the Peaucellier-Lipkin Linkage".
