Abstract: In this research project we pick apart circle packings and in doing so we consider the history of major mathematicians who added insight. By providing definitions and background knowledge we seek to understand how to construct circle packings and we show what it means to be mutually tangent. In this presentation we will also take notice of related topics such as sphere packings and Ford Circles and touch on applications of circle packings that make them a useful tool.
