Study Notes
- A circle is a set of points on a plane that are equidistant from a given point.
Key Elements:
- Center (O): the center of the circle.
- Radius (R): the distance from the center to any point on the circle.
- Diameter (D): a segment connecting two points on the circle through the center (D = 2R).
- Chord: any segment connecting two points on the circle (the diameter is the longest chord).
- Arc Length (L): the perimeter of the circle, formula: L = 2Ï€R.
- Area (S): the inner part of the circle, formula: S = πR².
- A circle should not be confused with a disk.
- A circle is only a boundary (line), and a disk is a figure taken together with its inner part.
