Combinatorial geometry is a broad and beautiful branch of mathematics. This PhD Thesis consists of the study of five different topics in this area. Even though the problems and the tools used to tackle them are diverse, they share a unifying goal: To explore the interaction between combinatorial and geometric structures. In Chapter 1 we study a problem by Paul Erdös: for a positive integer k, how many points in general position do we need in the plane so that we can always find a k-subset of them defining triangles with distinct circumradii? This question was posed in 1975 and Erdös himself proposed a solution in 1978. However, the proof inadvertently left out a non-trivial case. We deal with the case using basic tools from algebraic geomet...
