In this section: Understand and apply the principle of CPCTC Recognize basic information about circles.
After getting two triangles congruent to each other, getting corresponding parts congruent is simple. All you need is CPCTC. A BC D E F
.O All circles are named by their centers. Every point on a circle is the same distance from its center. Points A and B are on circle O. Theorem 19- All radii of a circle are congruent ^ this circle would be named: Circle O A B
The circumference of a circle is the distance around the outside of it. The formula for finding the circumference is… A C Knowing that the length of is 8, we can use that information to find the circumference of circle A. 8
The area of a circle is the amount of space inside of it. The formula to find the area of a circle is… *NOTE if the exact answer is needed, press the button on the calculator. If an estimated answer is needed, type in B C Knowing that the length of is 6, we can find the area using the area formula. 6
