Unit Eight Geometry QUIZ VERSION Flashcards
(12 cards)
What principles can be applied to two connected equivalent chords?
Isosceles principle: Angles OPP = sides
What is the difference between a “dIaMeter AnGle” and an inscribed angle?
The “dIaMeter AnGle” is equivalent to the arc, the inscribed angle is 1/2 both/
Central Angle = Intercepted Arc
What can you do when you see two radii on an inscribed angle?
Radius will only come with right angles; if the angle is split on the diameter, then all three radii are equal and their opposite sides are too.
Two chords are congruent if:
They: A) are equidistant from the centre, or B) form corresponding arcs
if AB = CD, (AB = (CD
( is to represent arc symbol.
If a radius is _ to a chord, then it _ the _ and its _.
perpendicular, bisects, chord and arc.
If CE perpendicular AB, then AD = BD, (AC = (BC
( is to represent arc symbol.
Proof for inscribed angle?
mABC = 1/2 m(AC
( is to represent arc symbol.
If an inscribed angle intercepts a diameter then,
it is a right angle
INSCRIBED ANGLE PROOF:
If two inscribed angles intercept the same arc, then the angles are equal.
(short memorization) If 2 ang intercept arc, then ang =.
QUADRILATERAL PROOF
if a quadrilateral is inscribed in a circle then its opposite angles are supplementary
(short memorization) If quad inscr. then OPP ang SUPP.
A tangent is tangent only when it is:
Perpendicular to a radius and drawn to a point of tangency
`
CONGRUENCY TANGENT
Tangents from the same external point are equal
(short memorization) Tangents Same Ext Pt Equal
CIRCUMSCRIBED POLYGONS
If a polygon is circumscribed around a circle, its sides are tangent
I.E., now you use CONGRUENCY TANGENT
