Takeaways

• 😀 The script provides an introduction to the parts of a circle, including the radius, diameter, arc, chord, apothem, sector, and segment.
• 😀 The radius (r) of a circle is the line drawn from the center to any point on the circumference, and is commonly represented by the letter 'r'.
• 😀 The diameter (D) is a line passing through the center, touching two points on the circumference, and is twice the length of the radius (D = 2r).
• 😀 An arc is a curved portion of the circle's circumference, and it is categorized into two types: minor arc (less than half the circle) and major arc (greater than half the circle).
• 😀 A chord is a straight line that connects two points on the circumference, and it can also be the diameter if it passes through the center.
• 😀 The apothem is a straight line from the center of the circle to a chord, perpendicular to the chord, forming a right angle.
• 😀 A sector is the area enclosed by two radii and an arc, and a segment is the area enclosed by a chord and an arc.
• 😀 The formula for the length of an arc is calculated by multiplying the central angle (alpha) by the circumference (2πr) and dividing by 360 degrees.
• 😀 The formula for the area of a sector (A) is given by (alpha/360) × πr², where alpha is the central angle in degrees.
• 😀 To calculate the area of a segment, subtract the area of the corresponding triangle from the area of the sector. The area of a triangle is 1/2 × base × height.
• 😀 The script also discusses the formula for the length of the tangent line to two circles, both for external tangents and internal tangents.

Q & A

What is the definition of a radius in a circle?

The radius of a circle is a straight line from the center of the circle to any point on the circumference. It is typically represented by the symbol 'r'.

How is the diameter of a circle different from the radius?

The diameter of a circle is twice the length of the radius, and it passes through the center of the circle, connecting two points on the circumference. It is represented by the symbol 'D' and can be calculated as D = 2r.

What is the difference between a minor and major arc in a circle?

A minor arc is the shorter part of the circumference of the circle, measuring less than half the circle, while a major arc is the longer part, measuring more than half the circle.

What is a chord in a circle?

A chord is a straight line that connects two points on the circumference of a circle, and it does not necessarily pass through the center of the circle.

How is the apothem defined in a circle?

The apothem is the perpendicular distance from the center of the circle to a chord (or to the edge of a polygon inscribed in the circle).

What does the term 'sector' mean in the context of a circle?

A sector of a circle is a region enclosed by two radii and the arc between them. It is essentially a 'slice' of the circle.

What is the formula for calculating the length of an arc?

The length of an arc can be calculated using the formula: Arc length = (Angle/360) * Circumference of the circle, where the circumference is given by 2πr, and the angle is in degrees.

How do you calculate the area of a sector?

The area of a sector can be calculated using the formula: Area = (Angle/360) * πr², where 'r' is the radius and 'Angle' is the angle of the sector in degrees.

What is a segment of a circle?

A segment of a circle is the region bounded by a chord and the arc it subtends. It is a portion of the circle cut off by the chord.

How do you find the length of a tangent to a circle from an external point?

The length of a tangent to a circle from an external point can be calculated using the formula: Length of the tangent = √(d² - r²), where 'd' is the distance from the external point to the center of the circle, and 'r' is the radius of the circle.
