Standard 1 : Understand and apply theorems about circles This document was generated on CPALMS - www.cpalms.org Geometry - Additional Cluster Clusters should not be sorted from Major to Supporting and then taught in that order. To do so would strip the coherence of the mathematical ideas and miss the opportunity to enhance the major work of the grade with the supporting clusters. Number: MAFS.912.G-C.1 Title: Understand and apply theorems about circles Type: Cluster Subject: Mathematics Grade: 912 Domain: Geometry: Circles Related Standards Code MAFS.912.G-C.1.1 MAFS.912.G-C.1.2 MAFS.912.G-C.1.3 MAFS.912.G-C.1.4 Description Prove that all circles are similar. Identify and describe relationships among inscribed angles, radii, and chords. Include the relationship between central, inscribed, and circumscribed angles; inscribed angles on a diameter are right angles; the radius of a circle is perpendicular to the tangent where the radius intersects the circle. Construct the inscribed and circumscribed circles of a triangle, and prove properties of angles for a quadrilateral inscribed in a circle. Construct a tangent line from a point outside a given circle to the circle.

Perspectives Video: Professional/Enthusiast Name Description All Circles Are Similar- Especially What better way to demonstrate that all circles are similar then to use pizzas! Gaines Street Pies explains how all pizza pies are similar through transformations. Circular Pizza!: Lesson Plan Name Are All Circles Similar? : Circle to Circle: Geometry Problems: Circles and Triangles: Geometry Problems: Circles and Triangles: Description This lesson allows students to prove that all circles are similar using transformations. Students will need prior knowledge of similarity, transformations, and the definition of a circle. The lesson begins with a warm up regarding dilations, then poses the question: Are all circles similar? The students are guided through the proof using a translation and dilation. The teacher emphasizes the details in the proof. The lesson closes with an exit ticket. Students use coordinate based translations and dilations to prove circles are similar. This lesson unit is intended to help you assess how well students are able to use geometric properties to solve problems. In particular, the lesson will help you identify and help students who have the following difficulties solving problems by determining the lengths of the sides in right triangles and finding the measurements of shapes by decomposing complex shapes into simpler ones. The lesson unit will also help students to recognize that there may be different approaches to geometrical problems, and to understand the relative strengths and weaknesses of those approaches.

Inscribing and Circumscribing Right Triangles: Off on a Tangent: Seeking Circle Angles: Seeking Circle Segments: The Seven Circles Water Fountain : Why are Circles Similar?: This lesson is designed to enable students to develop strategies for describing relationships between right triangles and the radii of their inscribed and circumscribed circles. Students learn and apply vocabulary, notation, concepts, and geometric construction techniques associated with circles and their tangents to a historical real-world scenario, the Mason-Dixon Line, and a hypothetical real-world scenario, the North-South Florida Line. Students will start this lesson with a win-lose-draw game to review circle vocabulary words. They will then use examples on a discovery sheet to discover the relationships between arcs and the angles whose vertex is located on a circle, in the interior of the circle, and exterior to the circle. They will wrap up the lesson in a class discussion and questions answered on white boards. Students will start this lesson with a "Pictionary" game to review circle vocabulary terms. They will then use computers and GeoGebra to discover the relationships between portions of segments that intersect in the interior of the circle, and exterior to the circle. They will wrap up the lesson in a class discussion and consensus on rules (formulas). This lesson provides an opportunity for students to apply concepts related to circles, angles, area, and circumference to a design situation. A lesson plan that shows students how to prove all circles are similar using the three transformations (reflection, dilation, translation) on a unique circle. The lesson takes students through multiple step transformations to show proof of circle similarity. A Socratic discussion is used as closure to aid in comprehension of circle similarity Educational Game Name Circle Up!: Tangled Web: An Angle Relationships Game: Description This interactive game helps you learn about angles and segments, lines and arcs in a circle and how they are related.
