1. Circles MM2G3. Students will understand the properties of circles.
b. Understand and use properties of central, inscribed, and related angles.
d. Justify measurements and relationships in circles using geometric and algebraic properties.

2. Properties of a Circle
A circle is the set of all points in a plane that are equidistant from a given point called the center of the circle.
A segment whose endpoints are the center and any point on the circle is a radius.
A chord is a segment whose endpoints are on a circle.
A diameter is a chord that contains the center of the circle.

3. A secant is a line that intersects a circle in two points.
A tangent is a line in the plane of a circle that intersects the circle in exactly one point, called the point of tangency.
A tangent to a circle is perpendicular to the radius at the point of tangency.

tangent

tangency

5. Tangent is perpendicular to a radius at the point of tangency.
Tangent Theorems
Tangent is perpendicular to a radius at the point of tangency.
Create right triangles for problem solving.

6. Tangents of Curvature
Do the 14-4 Enrichment of Tangents, Secant, and intercepted Arcs, # 1 – 4
Look at GPS files showing the fact that the point of tangency has to be on the line through the centers of the two circles.
Assign the egg tangent project – due in a week

7. Warm-Up

8. Angles Inside of the Circle
Have students make secant angles inside of a circle, measure the angles, discover the angle relationship.

10. Angles Outside of the Circle
Review:
A secant line is a line that intersects a circle in two points.
A tangent line intersects a circle at one point
New:
In a circle, two secants, one secant and one tangent, or two tangents can intersect outside of the circle to form an angle.

tangent

tangency

12. Angles Outside of the Circle
Use the circle template provided.
Use your straight edge to construct an angle outside of the circle using two secants.
Label the vertex of your angle and the points where the sides of the angle intersect the circle.
How many arcs will two secants cut the circle into?

13. Angles Outside of the Circle
Use your straight edge to construct an angle outside of the circle using one secant and one tangent.
Label the vertex of your angle and the points where the sides of the angle intersect the circle.
How many arcs will one secant and one tangent cut the circle into?

14. Angles Outside of the Circle
Use your straight edge to construct an angle outside of the circle using two tangents.
Label the vertex of your angle and the points where the sides of the angle intersect the circle.
How many arcs will two tangents cut the circle into?

15. Angles Outside of the Circle
Shade the arcs per the GPS file
Write the equation needed to find the measure of the angle outside the circle for each example.
What general rule do you notice?
angle = ½(lg. arc – sm. arc)

16. Arcs and Angles There are three possible arc/angle situations.
Vertex located ON THE CIRCLE.
Vertex located IN THE CIRCLE.
Vertex located OUTSIDE THE CIRCLE.

17. Vertex ON THE CIRCLE
angle = ½ arc
250°
110°
125°
55°

18. Vertex IN THE CIRCLE = 120° angle = ½(arc + arc) 110° 130°
= ½(240)
= 120°
130°
angle = ½(arc + arc)

19. Vertex OUTSIDE THE CIRCLE

20. Vertex OUTSIDE THE CIRCLE
angle = ½( )
= ½(110)
= 55°
160°
50°
angle = ½(lg. arc – sm. arc)

21. Vertex ON THE CIRCLE
angle = ½ arc
Vertex IN THE CIRCLE
angle = ½(arc + arc)
Vertex OUTSIDE THE CIRCLE
angle = ½(lg. arc – sm. arc)
