Study Notes
Circle Definitions and Properties
- Radius: A line segment joining the center of a circle to any point on the circle's circumference.
- Diameter: A line segment passing through the center of a circle and connecting two points on the circle's circumference. It's twice the length of the radius.
- Chord: A line segment connecting any two points on a circle's circumference.
- Arc: A portion of the circle's circumference.
- Sector: A region bounded by two radii and an arc.
Circle Diagram Elements
- Draw a circle with a labeled center O and a 3cm radius. Mark and label:
- A point P inside the circle
- A point Q on the circle
- A point R outside the circle
Circle Properties (True/False)
- Every diameter of a circle is also a chord: True
- Every chord of a circle is also a diameter: False
- The center of a circle lies on all its chords: False
Circle Diagrams (Chord and Arc)
- Draw a circle with center O and a 4cm radius. Draw a chord AB. Mark the minor and major arcs formed by chord AB.
Circle Fill in the Blanks
- A diameter of a circle is a chord that passes through the center.
- A radius of a circle is a line segment with one endpoint at the center and the other endpoint on the circle.
Circle Diagrams (Sector)
- Draw a circle with center O and a 2.5 cm radius. Draw a sector with a 60° central angle.
Circle Comparisons
- Radius of a circle is less than Diameter of the circle
- Length of minor arc is less than Length of major arc
Chord vs. Arc
- A chord is a line segment connecting two points on the circle's circumference. An arc is a portion of the circle's circumference.
Radii from a Point
- If a point P is inside a circle, you can draw infinitely many radii from point P to the circle (or to the circumference).
Circumference
- The circumference of a circle is the distance around the circle.
