Syllabus
4.7 Use and interpret vocabulary of circles
Properties of circles:
tangent perpendicular to radius at the point of contact
tangents from a point
angle in a semicircle
angles at the centre and at the circumference on the same arc
cyclic quadrilateral
The angle at the center is twice the Angles in the same segment are equal.

angle at the circumference.

Opposite angles in a cyclic quadrilateral add up to 180°.

The angle in a semi-circle is 90°.

The lengths of the two tangents from a point to

a circle are equal. The angle between a tangent and a radius in a circle is 90°.

Alternate segment theorem:

The angle (α) between the tangent and the chord at the point of contact (D) is equal to the angle
(β) in the alternate segment*.
