Circle Vocabulary
C
Circle – set of all
points equidistant
_________
from a given point
called the _____
center
of the circle.
Symbol:
C
CHORD:
A segment
whose
endpoints
are on the
circle
DIAMETER:
P
Distance
across the
circle through
its center
Also known as the
longest chord.
RADIUS:
P
Distance
from the
center to
point on
circle
Formula
Radius = ½ diameter
or
Diameter = 2r
D = ?
r = ?
r = ?
D = ?
Use P to determine whether each
statement is true or false.
Q
1. RT is a diameter. False R
2. PS is a radius. True
P
3. QT is a chord. True
T
S
Secant Line:
intersects the
circle at
exactly TWO
points
Tangent Line:
a LINE that intersects the circle
exactly ONE time
Forms a 90°angle
with one radius
Point of Tangency:
The point where the
tangent intersects
the circle
Name the term that best describes the notation.

THINGS TO KNOW AND
REMEMBER ALWAYS
A circle has 360 degrees
A semicircle has 180 degrees
Vertical Angles are CONGRUENT
Linear Pairs are SUPPLEMENTARY
Formula
measure Arc = measure Central Angle
Measure of Arcs & Angles
In a circle, the measure of the central angle is
always equal to the measure of its intercepted arc.
x=n
m ∠ ABC = m AC
• If ∠ ABC is 80°, what
is the measure of arc
AC?
m AC = 80°

Measure of Arcs & Angles
EXAMPLE: In the diagram below, if the m ∠ xyz is 68°, find
the measure of a.) minor arc and b.) major arc.
SOLUTION:
a. measure of minor arc
m ∠xyz = m xz (since ∠xyz is a central angle)
x
m xz = 68°
b. measure of major arc
68°
major arc = 360° – m xz (minor arc)
=360° – 68°
y
m xz (major arc) = 292°
292°
