Study Notes
Circle Properties
- A circle is a collection of points in a plane that are equidistant from a fixed point, called the center.
- Equal chords of a circle (or congruent circles) subtend equal angles at the center.
- If the angles subtended by two chords of a circle (or congruent circles) at the center are equal, the chords are equal.
Chord Properties
- The perpendicular from the center of a circle to a chord bisects the chord.
- The line drawn through the center of a circle to bisect a chord is perpendicular to the chord.
- Equal chords of a circle (or congruent circles) are equidistant from the center (or corresponding centers).
- Chords equidistant from the center (or corresponding centers) of a circle (or congruent circles) are equal.
Arc and Chord Relationships
- If two arcs of a circle are congruent, then their corresponding chords are equal.
- If two chords of a circle are equal, then their corresponding arcs (minor, major) are congruent.
- Congruent arcs of a circle subtend equal angles at the center.
Angle Properties
- The angle subtended by an arc at the center is double the angle subtended by it at any point on the remaining part of the circle.
- Angles in the same segment of a circle are equal.
- An angle in a semicircle is a right angle.
Cyclic Quadrilaterals
- If a line segment joining two points subtends equal angles at two other points lying on the same side of the line containing the line segment, the four points lie on a circle.
- The sum of either pair of opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral is 180.
