2
Circle A set of all points in a plane at a given distance from a given point in the plane..
3
Radius A segment from a point on the circle to the center of the circle.
4
Congruent Circles Two circles whose radii have the same measure. R=3 cm
5
Concentric Circles Two or more circles that share the same center..
6
Chord Is a segment whose endpoints lie on the circle. A B D C
7
Diameter A chord passing through the center of a circle. I J
8
Secant A line that contains a chord.
9
Tangent A line in the plane of the circle that intersects the circle in exactly one point.
10
Semicircle A semicircle is an arc of a circle whose endpoints are the endpoints of the diameter. Is a semicircle
11
Minor Arc An arc of a circle that is smaller than a semicircle. The minor arc is AP (clockwise) or PD (clockwise). A D P
12
Major Arc An arc of a circle that is larger than a semicircle. The major arc would be PA (clockwise) or DP (counter clockwise). AD P
13
Inscribed Angle An angle whose vertex lies on a circle and whose sides contain chords of a circle. B A C D
14
Central Angle An angle whose vertex is the center of the circle. A O B
15
Properties of Circles The measure of a central angle is two times the measure of the angle that subtends the same arc.
16
Example If the m<C is 55 , then the m<O is 110 . Both angle C and angle O subtend the same arc, AB. O A B C
17
Property #2 Angles inscribed in the same arc are congruent.
18
Example The m<AQB and the m<APB are congruent because they both inscribe arc AB. The m<QAP and m<QBP would be congruent because they inscribe arc QP. A Q B P
19
Property #3 Every angle inscribed in a semicircle is an right angle.
20
Example Each of the three angles inscribed in the semicircle is a right angle. A B C D E Angle B, C, and D are all 90 degree angles.
21
Property #4 The opposite angles of a quadrilateral inscribed in a circle are supplementary.
22
Example The measure of angle D + angle B=180 The measure of angle C+angle A=180 The measure of angle D + angle B=180 The measure of angle C+angle A=180 A B C D 110 70 115 65
23
Property #5 Parallel lines intercept congruent arcs on a circle.
24
Example A B Arc AB is congruent to Arc CD C D
25
Formulas What are the two formulas for finding circumference? C= What are the two formulas for finding circumference? C=
26
Answer C=2 pi r C=d pi C=2 pi r C=d pi
27

28
Answer A=radius square times pi
