Circle Theorem

The document discusses circle theorems and defines key circle terminology. It provides definitions for concepts like radius, circumference, tangent, and sector. It also summarizes three circle theorems - Theorem 1 states that the angle subtended by a chord at the center is twice the angle at the circumference. Theorem 2 states that angles subtended by an arc in the same segment are equal. Theorem 4 states that the angle in a semicircle is a right angle. The document is presented by a group of five students and encourages the reader to ask questions.

Definition for Circle Theorems
• With proofs, the circle theorem explains the notions of distinct
aspects of the circle, such as sectors, tangents, angles, chords, and
radius of the ring. A circle is formed by connecting all points that
are at the same distance from a given focus point. This fixed point
is located at the circle's center. However, because all of the points
on the circle are at the same distance, this fixed point is referred to
as the circle's center.

• The length between the circle center point and any point that lies on
the circle is known as the radius. The space occupied by the circle is
its area, and the outer line of the circle is its circumference. The line
that is perpendicular to the circle at any point on the circle is known
as a tangent.
The Basic Parts of a Circle
Circle Theorem
• There are eight circle theorems but we will be covering circle
theorem 1, 2 and 4 in this presentation. If you don’t
understand, feel free to ask questions and we will try our best
to explain.
Theorem 1
• The angle subtended by a chord at the center is twice the size
of the angle subtended by the same chord at the circumference.

Theorem 2
• The angles subtended by an arc in the same segment of a circle
are equal.
Alternatively “Angles
subtended by an arc in the
same segment are equal”

We say “Angles subtended by a


chord in the same segment are
equal”

As the APEX moves around the


circumference, the angle that 'sits' on
a chord does not change.

Theorem 4
• The angle in a semicircle is a right angle.

A Special Case

When the angle stands


on the diameter, what is
the size of angle a?

The diameter is a straight


line so the angle at the
centre is 180°

Angle a = 90°
