    Study Notes

    Circle Geometry Basics

    • Vertex in the Center: When the vertex is at the center, the measure of the angle is equal to the measure of the intercepted arc.
    • Vertex on the Circle: For a vertex located on the circle, the angle's measure is half of the measure of the intercepted arc.
    • Vertex Inside the Circle: If the vertex is inside the circle, the angle measure equals half the sum of the measures of the intercepted arcs.
    • Vertex Outside the Circle: When the vertex is outside the circle, the angle's measure is half the difference between the measures of the intercepted arcs.

    Circle Line Definitions

    • Secant: A line that crosses a circle at two distinct points, creating a segment.
    • Tangent: A line, ray, or segment that touches the circle at exactly one point, known as the point of tangency.
    • Chord: A segment with both endpoints located on the circle.

    Circle Components

    • Circle: Defined as a collection of points equidistant from a central point.
    • Center: The central point from which all points on the circle are equidistant.
    • Diameter: The line segment that passes through the center of the circle, connecting two points on the circle.
    • Radius: Half the length of the diameter, extending from the center to any point on the circle.

    Angle Measurements

    • Central Angle: An angle formed by two radii with its vertex at the center of the circle.
    • Semicircle: Represents half of a circle's total area.
    • Minor Arc: An arc measuring less than 180 degrees of the circle.
    • Major Arc: An arc that measures more than 180 degrees.
    • Intersecting Chords Formula: The product of the segments of one chord equals the product of the segments of the other chord.
    • Two Secants Formula: The product of the external segment and the whole length of one secant equals the product of the external segment and the whole length of another secant.
    • Tangent and Secant Formula: The square of the tangent length equals the product of the length of the external segment and the total length of the secant.
    • Quadratic Formula: Used to find the roots of a quadratic equation, expressed as x = (-b ± √(b² - 4ac)) / (2a).
