CIRCLES

LINES THAT INTERSECT CIRCLES

• Chord- is a segment whose endpoints lie on a circle

• Secant- is a line that intersects a circle at two points
• tangent is a line in the same plane as a circle that intersects it
at exactly one point.
• Point of tangency- where the tangency and a circle intersect.
• Chord

• l secant

• tangent
• Point of tangency
 FACTS

• Two circles are congruent circles if and only if they have

congruent radii.
 TYPES OF CIRCLES

• COCENTRIC CIRCLES

• ARE COPLANAR CIRCLES WITH THE SAME CENTER.

TANGENT CIRCLES

TWO COPLANAR CIRCLES THAT INTERSECT AT

EXACTLY ONE POINT
 SOME THEOREMS OF A CIRCLE

• THEOREM 11-1-3

• IF TWO SEGMENTS ARE TANGENT TO A CIRCLE FROM

THE SAME EXTERNAL POINT, THEN THE SEGMENTS ARE
CONGRUENT. Therefore, line segment AB is congruent to AC.
• B

• A

• C
 THEOREM 11-1-2

• If a line is perpendicular to a radius of a circle at a point on the

circle, then the line is tangent to the circle. Therefore, m is
tangent to C
• D
• m

•
• C
 OUTPUT 1

• 1. LIST SOME THEOREMS INVOLVING CIRCLE

(ATLEAST 3)
• 2. DRAW EXAMPLE OF COCENTRIC CIRCLE, TANGENT
CIRCLE, INTERNALLY TANGENT CIRCLE AND
EXTERNALLY TANGENT CIRCLE.
• 3. EXPLAIN THE IMPORTANCE OF THEOREM IN
MATHEMATICS ESPECIALLY IN GEOMETRY. (OWN
WORDS PLS LANG, MAS MAKA APPRECIATE KOG
OWN WORDS KUMPARA SA GOOGLE, HAHAHA) 
