2
circle - set of all points in a plane at a given distance from a given point in the plane
3
Parts of a Circle:
4
radius - segment from point on circle to circles center
5
center - point in middle of circle with letter next to it
6
Circles are named by their center point.
7
This circle is circle A.
8
What is the name of the circle below?
9
Circle N
10
congruent circles - circles with the same radius
11
These circles are congruent.
12
arc of a circle - two points on the circle and the unbroken part between the two points
13
arc of a circle endpoints - the two points that define an arc
14
NAMING ARCS An arc is named by its endpoints.
15
THREE TYPES OF ARCS: semicircle - arc whose endpoints are a diameter (half a circle)
16
THREE TYPES OF ARCS: semicircle - named using three points on the arc; endpoints listed first and last
17
THREE TYPES OF ARCS: The blue dashed arc is arc AOB or symbolically...
18
THREE TYPES OF ARCS: minor arc - arc less than a semicircle
19
THREE TYPES OF ARCS: minor arc - named using the two endpoint letters
20
THREE TYPES OF ARCS: The blue dashed arc is arc YZ or symbolically...
21
THREE TYPES OF ARCS: major arc - arc greater than a semicircle
22
THREE TYPES OF ARCS: major arc - named using three points on the arc with endpoints listed first and last
23
THREE TYPES OF ARCS: major arc - named using three points on the arc with endpoints listed first and last
24
THREE TYPES OF ARCS: The blue dashed arc is arc YXZ or symbolically...
25
chord A segment whose endpoints are on the circle.
26
AB is a chord.
27
diameter A chord that goes through the center of a circle.
28
CD is a diameter.
29
secant -line that goes through two points of a circle.
30
-line m is a secant
31
tangent -line that touches circle at only one point
32
-line p is a tangent
33
inscribed angle -angle made of two chords
34
- ABC and BCD are inscribed angles
35
BCD is an inscribed angle m BCD = ½ m
36
central angle -angle made of two radii
37
- COD is a central angle
38
COD is a central angle m COD = m
39
Name each circle part as either a chord, diameter, secant, tangent, or inscribed angle.
40
tangent line
41
chord
42
secant
43
central angle DOA
44
diameter
45
inscribed angle
