Definition: Touching Circles
Two circles are touching if they intersect at exactly one point.
Types:
-
Externally touching circles
Distance between centres = sum of radii -
Internally touching circles
Distance between centres = difference of radii
Key Points: Measure of Arcs
-
An angle whose vertex is the centre of a circle is called a central angle.
-
Measure of minor arc = measure of its central angle
-
Measure of major arc = 360° − minor arc
- The measure of a semicircle is 180°
-
Full circle = 360°
Key Points: Congruence of Arcs
Two arcs are congruent if:
-
They belong to the same or congruent circles
-
They have equal radii
-
They have equal measures
Congruent arcs ⇔ congruent chords
Definition: Inscribed Angle
An inscribed angle is an angle whose vertex lies on the circle and whose arms intersect the circle at two other distinct points.
Definition: Intercepted Arc
The arc of the circle intercepted by the arms of the angle is called the intercepted arc of the inscribed angle.
Theorem: Inscribed Angle Theorem
Statement:
The measure of an inscribed angle is half of the measure of the arc intercepted by it.
Measure of an inscribed angle = `1/2` × measure of intercepted arc
- Angles inscribed in the same arc are congruent.
- An angle inscribed in a semicircle is a right angle.
Key Points: Cyclic Quadrilateral
A cyclic quadrilateral: All four vertices lie on the same circle
Key properties:
-
Opposite angles are supplementary
-
Exterior angle = interior opposite angle
Key points: Angles Formed by Chords, Secants, Tangents
1) Chords intersect inside the circle
Angle = `1/2` (sum of intercepted arcs)
(2) Secants intersect outside the circle
Angle = `1/2`(difference of intercepted arcs)
(3) Tangent–secant angle
Angle = `1/2` (intercepted arc)
These concepts unify angles + arcs.
Theorem: Theorems on Chord and Secant Segments
Chords Intersecting Inside:
AE × EB = CE × ED
Chords Intersecting Outside:
AE × EB = CE × ED
Tangent–secant segments:
EA × EB = ET2
