Acircle is the set of all points equidistant from the same Point (the center) GxcleP Concentric circles share the ‘same center. The distance from the center to a point on the circle is called the radius (. For two circles to be congruent, they must have the same radius. Exterior of the circle Diameter ‘Chord Interior of the circle ‘The distance across the circle, through the center, is the diameter (2), length ofthe diameters twice the length of the radius d=2r ‘A chard is a segment whose endpoints, ‘are on the circle ‘Adiameter is a chord that passes through the center ofthe circle, Point of Tangent Tangency Tangent Circles Co Asecant is a line that intersects the circle in ‘two points, ‘tangent is a line that intersects the circle at ‘one point, which is called the point of tangency.
