Study Notes
Circle Measurements and Properties
- A Ferris wheel with a 42-foot diameter travels approximately 1,978 feet in a 5-minute ride at 3 rotations per minute.
- In circle P, the length of arc QR is approximately 9.9 centimeters when diameter QS measures 20 centimeters.
- The measure of arc BEC in circle D is 134°, while arc QR measures 104°.
- Angle XYZ in circle A measures 35°, and angle BCD (circumscribed angle) is 74° given angle BAC is 53°.
Circle Equations and Attributes
- The equation of a circle with radius 2 units centered at (4, 3) is (x - 4)² + (y - 3)² = 2².
- A circle with equation (x + 5)² + (y - 3)² = 42 has a radius of 4 units.
- The area of circle C with radius 32 units is 1024π units².
Parabolas and Their Components
- A parabola with vertex at (0, 0) and directrix on the negative y-axis is represented by x² = 4y.
- For the equation x² = 12y, the value of p is 3; the coordinates of the focus are [0, 1/2] and the directrix is y = -1/2.
Tangents, Chords, and Angles
- Line segment KL is tangent to circle J, with a radius of 10 units at the point of tangency.
- Chords intersect the circle at two points, while secants extend through the circle.
Triangle Properties Related to Circles
- Triangle XYZ, formed by tangent segments from point Y to circle O, is an isosceles triangle.
- In a circle where diameters AD and BE intersect, the measure of angle EAC is 280° based on arc measures.
Sector and Area Calculations
- The area of the non-shaded sector of a circle is 120π units².
- Marco's new circle, using radius defined by line segment GX, has an area of 676π cm².
Additional Measurements and Insights
- Line segments XY and ZY, tangent to circle O, form an isosceles triangle with equal tangent lengths.
- Length and angle measurements within circles can greatly affect the calculations for areas, perimeters, and angles associated with different geometric figures.
