C
Parts of a Circle
Circle – set of all
points _________
equidistant
from a given point
called the _____
center
of the circle.
Symbol:
C
CHORD:
A segment
whose
endpoints
are on the
circle
Radius
RADIUS:
P
Distance from
the center to
point on
circle
Diameter
P
DIAMETER:
Distance
across the
circle
through its
center
Also known as the
longest chord.
D = ?
r = ?
r = ?
D = ?
Use P to determine whether each
statement is true or false.
Q
1. RT is a diameter. False R
2. PS is a radius. True
P
3. QT is a chord. True
T
S
Secant Line:
intersects the
circle at
exactly TWO
points
Tangent Line:
a LINE that intersects
the circle exactly ONE
time
Forms a
90°angle
with a radius
Point of Tangency:
The point where the
tangent intersects
the circle
Name the term that best describes the notation.
Central Angle :
An Angle whose vertex is at the center of the circle
A
Major Arc
Minor Arc
More than 180°
Less than 180°

THINGS TO KNOW AND
REMEMBER ALWAYS
A circle has 360 degrees
A semicircle has 180 degrees
Vertical Angles are Equal
measure of an arc = measure of central angle
