OBJECTIVE

• Identify and describe terms


related to circle
How are wheels important to everyday life? Give
examples of their importance. What geometrical
figure do wheels signify?
ACTIVITY: Use the figure below to identify and name
the following terms related to circle A.
1. a radius
2. a diameter
3. a chord
4. a semicircle
5. a minor arc
6. a major arc
7. 2 central angles
8. 2 inscribed angles
1. How did you identify and name the radius, diameter
and chord? How about the semicircle, minor arc, and
major arc? Inscribed angle and central angle?
Answer key:
Terms related to circle
1. Radius It is a segment drawn from the center
of the circle to any point on the circle.
,
It is a segment whose endpoints are on
2. Diameter the circle and it passes through the
center of the circle. It is the longest
chord.
3. chord It is a segment joining any two points
on the circle.
,
4. Semicircle It is an arc measuring one-half of the
JNE, JLE circumference of a circle.

5. Minor arc It is an arc of a circle that measures


JL, JN, EN, EL less than a semicirlcle.
6. Major arc It is an arc of a circle that measures
LEN, LJE, ENL, greater than a semicircle.
JLN, LNJ
7. Central angle It is an angle whose vertex is at the
center of the circle and with two radii
as its sides.

8. Inscribed angle It is an angle whose vertex is on a


circle and whose sides contain chords
of the circle.
2. How do you describe a radius, a diameter, and
chord of a circle? How about the semicircle, minor
arc, and major arc? Inscribed angle and central angle?
1. A radius is half the measure of the diameter.
2. A diameter is twice the measure of the radius and it is
the longest chord.
3. A chord is a segment joining any two points on the circle.
4. A semicircle is an arc measuring one-half the
circumference of a circle.
5. A minor arc is an arc of a circle that measures less than
the semicircle.
6. A major arc is an arc of a circle that measures greater
than the semicircle.
7. A central angle is an angle whose vertex is the center
of the circle and with two radii as its sides.

8. A inscribed angle is an angle whose vertex is on a circle


and whose sides contain chords of the circle.
3. How do you differentiate among the radius,
diameter, and chord of a circle? How about the
semicircle, minor arc, and major arc? Inscribed
angle and central angle?
Now that you know the important terms related to
circles, let us deepen your understanding of finding the
lengths of sides of right triangles. You need this
mathematical skill in finding the relationships among
chords, arcs, and central angles.
ACTIVITY:
In each triangle below, the length of one side in unknown. Determine the
length of this side
Answer key:
1. c = 10 units
2. c = 17.49 units
3. c = 12. 73 units
4. a = 12 units
5. b = 4 units
6. b = 12. 12 units
1. How did you find the missing side of each
right triangle?
Using the equation a2 + b2 = c2

2. What mathematics concepts or principles


did you apply to find each missing side?
Pythagorean theorem
QUIZ:
Use circle A below to identify and name the following.
1. Radii
2. 2 Diameters
3. 2 Chords
4. 2 Semicircles
5.4 minor arcs and their
corresponding major arcs
6.4 central angles
