    Circle

    A circle is the set of all points that are the same


    distance from a fixed point on a plane called the
    center. A point is inside, on, or outside of a circle An inscribed angle is an angle whose vertex is on
    depending on whether its distance from the center is the circle. In figure 5,
    less than, equal to, or greater than the length of a FBG is an inscribed angle.
    radius, respectively. Figure 5

    Terms Related to a Circle

    Point A is the center of the circle. A circle is named


    by its center. The circle in figure 1 is named circle A.
    Figure 1

    An arc is a part of the circle. In figure 5, you can find


    arc BG (in symbol 𝑩𝑮̂), arc BF, arc FG, and arc
    BFG.
    A line segment joining two points on the circle is
    called a chord. In Figure 1, 𝑪𝑬̅̅̅̅ and 𝑩𝑮̅̅̅̅ are chords. A semicircle is an arc which is half of the circle. In
    A diameter of a circle is a chord that connects two figure 5, 𝐵𝐺𝐹̂ is a semicircle.
    points on the circle and passes through the center of
    the circle. Every diameter is a chord. In Figure 2, 𝑩𝑭̅̅̅̅ A minor arc is an arc that is less than a semi-circle.
    is a diameter. In figure 5, 𝐹𝐺̂ and , 𝐵𝐺̂ are minor arcs.
    Figure 2
    A major arc is an arc that is more than a semi-circle.
    In figure 5, arc BFG and arc FBG are major arcs.

    A tangent line is a line that intersects the circle at


    exactly one point. The point where the circle and
    tangent line intersect is called the point of
    tangency. In figure 5, line CE is a tangent line. Point
    F is the point of tangency.
    A radius is a line segment from the center of the
    circle to a point on the circle. A radius of the circle is A secant line is a line that intersects the circle at
    one-half of the diameter. In Figure 3, 𝑨𝑭̅̅̅̅, 𝑨𝑩,̅̅̅̅̅ 𝑨𝑯̅̅̅̅̅ two points. In figure 5, line BH is a secant line.
    and 𝑨𝑫̅̅̅̅ are radii (plural form of radius).
    Figure 3 Concentric circles are circles having the same
    center point. Figure 6 shows two concentric circles.
    Figure 6

    A chord is a line segment joining any two points on


    the circle. In figure 3, 𝑫𝑯̅̅̅̅̅ and 𝑩𝑭̅̅̅̅ are chords. A
    diameter is a chord.
    A central angle is an angle formed by two radii. In
    figure 4, BAD, BAH, HAF, and DAF are central
    angles.
