New cards

Chord

a straight line segment whose endpoints both lie on a curve, most commonly a circle

2
New cards

Tangent

a straight line that "just touches" a curve or surface at a single point without crossing through it at that location

3
New cards

Secant

a straight line that intersects a curve at two or more points

4
New cards

When the vertex is on the Tangent-Chord Angle

The angle formed by a tangent and a chord at the point of tangency equals half the measure of the intercepted arc.

5
New cards

Formula for When the vertex is on the angle

Formula: Angle=1/2 x arc

6
New cards

Inscribed Angle

Two Chords

7
New cards

Tangent - Secant

the angle formed is half the difference of the intercepted arcs.

8
New cards

Formula for when the vertex is outside the circle

Angle = ½ x (Far Arc - Near Arc)
