1 Intersections of Circles and Tangent Segments

8 If a line (segment or ray) is tangent to a circle, then it is perpendicular to the radius drawn to the point of tangency. Point of Tangency More Pythagorean Theorem type problems! Yeah!!

9 leg 2 + leg 2 = hyp 2 x = 15 9 2 + 12 2 = x 2

10 leg 2 + leg 2 = hyp 2 RQ = 16 12 2 + (RQ) 2 = (8+12) 2 12 2 + (RQ) 2 = 20 2

11 No leg 2 + leg 2 = hyp 2 ? 16 2 + 24 2 = 32 2 ?

12 r 2 + 24 2 = (r + 16) 2 r = 10 r 2 + 576 = r 2 + 32r + 256 320 = 32r

13 10. A green on a golf course is in the shape of a circle. Your golf ball is 8 feet from the edge of the green and 32 feet from a point of tangency on the green. a)What is the radius? b) How far is your ball from the cup at the center? x = 60 ft. x = 68 ft.

14 Two circles can intersect: in two points one point or no points

15 TWO points of intersection

16 One point of intersection are called Tangent Circles Internally Tangent Externally Tangent

17 No points of intersection, but different centers

18 Concentric Circles Have no points of intersection, but the same center Same center but different radii

19 7.3 – Surface Area & Volume of a Sphere
