1
CIRCLES: TANGENTS
2
TWO CIRCLES CAN INTERSECT… in two points one point or no points
3
NO POINTS OF INTERSECTION (DIFFERENT CENTER)
4
NO POINTS OF INTERSECTION (SAME CENTER) Same center but different radii
5
1 POINT OF INTERSECTION (TANGENT CIRCLES) Internally Tangent Externally Tangent
6
2 POINTS OF INTERSECTION
7
COMMON TANGENTS Internal
8
COMMON TANGENTS External
9
If a line (segment or ray) is tangent to a circle, then it is perpendicular to the radius drawn to the point of tangency. Point of Tangency More Pythagorean Theorem type problems! Yeah!!
10
a 2 + b 2 = c 2 x = 15 9 2 + 12 2 = x 2
11
a 2 + b 2 = c 2 RQ = 16 12 2 + (QR) 2 = (8+12) 2 12 2 + (QR) 2 = 20 2
12
r 2 + 24 2 = (r + 16) 2 r = 10 r 2 + 576 = r 2 + 32r + 256 320 = 32r
13
R S T If two segments from the same exterior point are tangent to a circle, then they are congruent. Party hat problems!
