New Material

CircleA circle is the set of all points in a plane at a given distance (radius) from a given point (center).

RadiusA radius is a segment from the center point to an edge of a circle.

Formalize a definition using the examples and nonexamples.

DiameterThe diameter is a line segment containing the center of a circle with endpoints on the circle

Formulate a definition using the examples and nonexamples.

ChordA chord is a line segment whose endpoints lie on the circle.

DiameterPreviously defined.

A diameter is the longest possible chord.

Formulate a definition using the examples and nonexamples.

TangentA tangent is a line that intersects the circle only once.

Arc of a circleAn arc of a circle is two points on the circle and the continuous part of the circle between the points.

SemicircleA semicircle is an arc of a circle whose endpoints are the endpoints of a diameter.

Minor ArcA minor arc is an arc of a circle that is smaller than a semicircle.

Major ArcA major arc is an arc of a circle that is larger than a semicircle.

Major/Minor Arcs

Central AngleA central angle is an angle with its vertex in the center of a circle.

Concentric Circles

Two or more coplanar circles share the same center.
