Circle Properties

Front

What can be said about chords in a circle that are equidistant from the center?

Back

Chords that are the same distance from the center are congruent to each other.

What is a tangent line in relation to a circle?

Back

A tangent is a line that intersects the circle at one point.

How do you find the length of a segment in a circle when given certain measurements?

Back

Use the properties of intersecting chords or tangents to set up equations based on the given measurements.

What is the formula for the length of an arc in a circle?

Back

The length of an arc can be calculated using the formula: Length = (θ/360) * 2πr, where θ is the angle in degrees and r is the radius.

What is the relationship between the angles formed by two intersecting chords in a circle?

Back

The measure of the angle formed by two intersecting chords is equal to half the sum of the measures of the arcs intercepted by the angle.
