Introduction In the third century B.C., Greek mathematician Euclid, often referred to as the “Father of Geometry,” created what is known as Euclidean geometry. He took properties of shape, size, and space and postulated their unchanging relationships that cultures before understood but had not proved to always be true.

IntroductionIn the third century B.C., Greek mathematician Euclid, often referred to as the “Father of Geometry,” created what is known as Euclidean geometry. He took properties of shape, size, and space and postulated their unchanging relationships that cultures before understood but had not proved to always be true. Archimedes, a fellow Greek mathematician, followed that by creating the foundations for what is now known as calculus.

Page 2: Introduction In the third century B. C., Greek mathematician Euclid, often referred to as the “Father of Geometry,” created what is known as Euclidean

Introduction, continuedIn addition to being responsible for determining things like the area under a curve, Archimedes is credited for coming up with a method for determining the most accurate approximation of pi, . In this lesson, you will explore and practice applying several properties of circles including proving that all circles are similar using a variation of Archimedes’ method.

3.1.1: Similar Circles and Central and Inscribed Angles

Page 3: Introduction In the third century B. C., Greek mathematician Euclid, often referred to as the “Father of Geometry,” created what is known as Euclidean

Key Concepts• Pi, ( ), is the ratio of the circumference to the

diameter of a circle, where the circumference is the distance around a circle, the diameter is a segment with endpoints on the circle that passes through the center of the circle, and a circle is the set of all points that are equidistant from a reference point (the center) and form a 2-dimensional curve.

• A circle measures 360°.• Concentric circles share the same center.

Page 4: Introduction In the third century B. C., Greek mathematician Euclid, often referred to as the “Father of Geometry,” created what is known as Euclidean

Key Concepts, continued• The diagram to the right

shows circle A ( ) with diameter and radius . The radius of a circle is a segment with endpoints on the circle and at the circle’s center; a radius is equal to half the diameter.

3.1.1: Similar Circles and Central and Inscribed Angles

Page 5: Introduction In the third century B. C., Greek mathematician Euclid, often referred to as the “Father of Geometry,” created what is known as Euclidean

Key Concepts, continued• All circles are similar and measure 360°.• A portion of a circle’s circumference is called an arc. • The measure of a semicircle, or an arc that is equal

to half of a circle, is 180°.• Arcs are named by their endpoints.

3.1.1: Similar Circles and Central and Inscribed Angles

• The semicircle below can be named

Page 7: Introduction In the third century B. C., Greek mathematician Euclid, often referred to as the “Father of Geometry,” created what is known as Euclidean

Key Concepts, continued• A part of the circle that is larger than a semicircle is

called a major arc.

• It is common to identify a third point on the circle when naming major arcs.

Page 9: Introduction In the third century B. C., Greek mathematician Euclid, often referred to as the “Father of Geometry,” created what is known as Euclidean

Key Concepts, continued• A minor arc is a part of

a circle that is smaller than a semicircle.

• The minor arc in the

Page 10: Introduction In the third century B. C., Greek mathematician Euclid, often referred to as the “Father of Geometry,” created what is known as Euclidean

Key Concepts, continued• Two arcs of the same circle or of congruent circles are

congruent arcs if they have the same measure.

• The measure of an arc is determined by the central angle.

• A central angle of a circle is an angle with its vertex at the center of the circle and sides that are created from two radii of the circle, as shown on the next slide.

• A chord is a segment whose endpoints lie on the circumference of a circle.

Central angle

Page 12: Introduction In the third century B. C., Greek mathematician Euclid, often referred to as the “Father of Geometry,” created what is known as Euclidean

Key Concepts, continued• An inscribed angle of a circle is an angle formed by

two chords whose vertex is on the circle.

3.1.1: Similar Circles and Central and Inscribed Angles

Page 13: Introduction In the third century B. C., Greek mathematician Euclid, often referred to as the “Father of Geometry,” created what is known as Euclidean

Key Concepts, continued• An inscribed angle is half the measure of the central

angle that intercepts the same arc. Conversely, the measure of the central angle is twice the measure of the inscribed angle that intercepts the same arc. This is called the Inscribed Angle Theorem.

3.1.1: Similar Circles and Central and Inscribed Angles

Inscribed Angle Theorem

The measure of an inscribed angle is half the measure of its intercepted arc’s angle.

Page 15: Introduction In the third century B. C., Greek mathematician Euclid, often referred to as the “Father of Geometry,” created what is known as Euclidean

Key Concepts, continued• In the diagram to the

right, ∠BCD is the inscribed angle and ∠BAD is the central angle. They both intercept the minor

arc

Corollaries to the Inscribed Angle Theorem

Corollary 1 Two inscribed angles that intercept the same arc are congruent.

Corollary 2 An angle inscribed in a semicircle is a right angle.

Guided Practice

Example 3A car has a circular turning radius of 15.5 feet. The distance between the two front tires is 5.4 feet. To the nearest foot, how much farther does a tire on the outer edge of the turning radius travel than a tire on the inner edge?

Guided Practice: Example 3, continued

1. Calculate the circumference of the outer tire’s turn.

3.1.1: Similar Circles and Central and Inscribed Angles

Formula for the circumference of a circle

Substitute 15.5 for the radius (r).

Simplify.

Guided Practice: Example 3, continued

2. Calculate the circumference of the inside tire’s turn. First, calculate the radius of the inner tire’s turn.

Since all tires are similar, the radius of the inner tire’s turn can be calculated by subtracting the distance between the two front wheels (the distance between each circle) from the radius of the outer tire’s turn.
