Chapter 10 Flashcards
circle
A set of all points that are equal distance from the center point
radius
The distance from the center to a point on the circle
all radii within a circle must be
congruent
Two different circles I have the same length radii are
Congruent
Two different circles with different length radii are
similar
diameter
hey, segment through the center which also connect to point on the circle
radius equals
1/2 diameter
diameter equals
Two times radius
chord
any segment, which connects two points of a circle
concentric circles
Coplanar circles that have a common center
tangent
A line in the same plane as a circle that intersects a circle at exactly 1 point
point of tangency
The point at which the tangent intersects with the circle
common tangent
A line that is tangent of two coplanar circles at the same time
if a line is tangent to a circle…
then it is perpendicular to the radius, drawn, from the point of tangency
tangent and radius are
perpendicular
if two segments from the same exterior point, or tangent to a circle
then the two segments are congruent AKA ice cream cone theorem
