Study Notes

Relationship Between Equal Chords and Angles at the Center

  • Equal chords in a circle subtend equal angles at the center.
  • If two chords are equal, the angles subtended by these chords at the center will also be equal.

Angles Subtended by Chords at the Center

  • When the angles subtended by the chords of a circle at the center are equal, the corresponding chords are equal in length.
  • This property assists in determining the equality of chords without direct measurement.

Perpendicular from the Center to a Chord

  • A perpendicular drawn from the center of a circle to a chord bisects the chord.
  • This means that the two segments created by the perpendicular line are equal in length.

Equal Chords and Distance from the Center

  • Equal chords of a circle are located at equal distances from the center.
  • If two chords are equal, the perpendicular distance from the center to each chord will also be the same.

Congruent Arcs and Angles Subtended at the Center

  • Congruent arcs in a circle subtend equal angles at the center.
  • This indicates a direct relationship between the arcs' lengths and the angles they form at the center.

Property of Equal Chords

  • Equal chords are equidistant from the center of the circle.
  • This relationship emphasizes the symmetry in the circle concerning its center.

Perpendicular from Center to Chord (Property Recap)

  • The line from the center to the chord that is perpendicular bisects the chord into two equal parts.
  • This property holds true for all chords within the circle.

Chords Equidistant from the Center

  • Chords that are equidistant from the center of a circle are equal in length.
  • This property reinforces the connection between the center and the positioning of the chords.

Property of Congruent Arcs

  • Congruent arcs in a circle are equal in length and subtend equal angles at the center.

Angles Subtended by Arc at the Center

  • The angle subtended by an arc at the center of a circle is unique to that arc.
  • This angle influences the dimensions and relationships of the corresponding chords and arcs within the circle.
