2. Math II Day 28 (9-17-09) UNIT QUESTION: What special properties are found with the parts of a circle? Standard: MM2G1, MM2G2 Today’s Question: What are the parts of a circle? Standard: MM2G3.a,d
23. INTERIOR A point is inside a circle if its distance from the center is less than the radius.
24. EXTERIOR A point is outside a circle if its distance from the center is greater than the radius.
25. A point is on a circle if its distance from the center is equal to the radius.
26. 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!!
27. 1. Find x 9 x A B 12 a 2 + b 2 = c 2 x = 15 9 2 + 12 2 = x 2
28. 2. Find RQ a 2 + b 2 = c 2 8 P R 12 Q RQ = 16 12 2 + (QR) 2 = (8+12) 2 12 2 + (QR) 2 = 20 2
29. 3. Find the radius. r 2 + 24 2 = (r + 16) 2 16 A B 24 C r = 10 r 2 + 576 = r 2 + 32r + 256 320 = 32r
30. R S T If two segments from the same exterior point are tangent to a circle, then they are congruent. Party hat problems!
