Manjul makes it so simple. The odds of two numbers being relatively prime is 6/pi^2 so where's the circle? You can kind of see rotation symmetry if you draw the relatively prime pairs of numbers in the coordinate plane. However

I think it's insane that Khan Academy should attempt to cover information theory giving the Coursera course has a 1% passing rate. I am two videos in, biting my lip to not make technical comments that don't matter at this level.
