Some properties of tangents, secants and chords

A line in the plane of the circle that intersects the circle at exactly one point is called tangent line. The point of intersection is called the point of tangency.

The Tangent- Line TheoremIf a line is tangent to a circle, then it is perpendicular to the radius at its outer endpoint. OrIf the tangent to a circle and the radius of the circle intersect they do so at right angles :

The Tangent- Line Theorem

If a line is tangent to a circle, then it is perpendicular to the radius at its outer endpoint. Or

If the tangent to a circle and the radius of the circle intersect they do so at right angles :

Corollary:

The tangents to a circle at the endpoints of a diameter are parallel.

If line l and line m are perpendicular to a diameter EP, then line l is parallel to line m.

The Tangent-Segments Theorem

1. The lengths of two tangent segments from an external point to a circle are equal.

2. The angles between the tangent segments and the line joining the external point to the center of the circle are congruent.

1. If line EF and line PF are tangent to circle C at E and P respectively intersects at F, then EF = PF.

The Tangent-Segments Theorem

1. The lengths of two tangent segments from an external point to a circle are equal.

2. The angles between the tangent segments and the line joining the external point to the center of the circle are congruent.

2. If tangent segments EF and PF form an angle EFP at F, then angle EFC = angle CFP.

Angles formed by intersecting chords

If two chords intersect in a circle, the angle they form is half the sum of the intercepted arcs.

Tangent Secant Theorem

If a chord intersects the tangent at the point of tangency, the angle it forms is half the measure of the intercepted arc.

Angles formed by intersecting two secants

If two secants intersect outside a circle half the difference in the measures of the intercepted arcs gives the angle formed by the two secants.

Chords and their arcs

Theorem: If in any circle two chords are equal in length then the measures of their corresponding minor arcs are same.

Chords and their arcs

Theorem: if two chords are equidistant from the center of the circle, they are equal in measure.

Chords and their arcs

Theorem: The perpendicular from the center of a circle to a chord of the circle bisects the chord.

In the figure, XY is the chord of a circle with center O. Seg.OP is the perpendicular from the center to the chord. According to the theorem given above seg XP = seg. YP.

Segments of chords, secants and tangents

The Intersecting segments of Chords TheoremIf two chords are intersect, then the product of the lengths of the segments of one chord is equal to the product of the lengths of the segments of the other chord.

The Segments of Secants Theorem

If two secants intersect in the exterior of the circle, the product of the length of one secant segment and the length of its external part is equal to the product of the length of the other secant and the length of its external part. QU ∙𝑄𝑅=𝑄𝑇 ∙𝑄𝑆

The Tangent Secant Segments Theorem

If a tangent segment and a secant segment intersect in the exterior of a circle, then the square of the length of the tangent segment is equal to the product of the lengths of the secant segment and its external part. 𝑃𝑇 2=𝐵𝑃 ∙ 𝐴𝑃

Perimeter or circumference of a circle = where r is the radius or C=, where d is the diameter d=2r

Perimeter and Area of a Circle

Area of a circle = r2 where ' r ' is the radius of the circle

Area of a circle = 2 where ' d ' is the diameter of the circle

An arc is a part of the circumference of the circle; a part proportional to the central angle.If 3600 corresponds to the full circumference. i.e. 2r then for a central angle of m0 the corresponding arc length will be l such that

Analogically consider the area of a sector. This too is proportional to the central angle. 3600 corresponds to area of the circle r2. Therefore for a central angle  the area of the sector will be in the ratio
