Week 2 Lesson 11

This document provides a lesson on identifying and applying relationships among the parts of a circle. It defines key terms like radius, diameter, circumference, arc, chord, secant, tangent, sector, and semicircle. It includes examples with questions to help students understand relationships between these parts of a circle, such as how the measure of a central angle relates to an inscribed angle, and how to calculate the area of a triangle given the base and height. The overall purpose is to teach students about the different components that make up a circle and their geometric relationships.

LESSON 11 : Identifying

and Applying Relationships


among the Parts of a Circle

Prepared by : Ms. Joana May C. Alvarez


Review
Complete:
1. (i) Each of the circle parts AC, BD, BC and AD that
make up the circumference of the circle is
Arc
called a/an _______________
Radius
(ii) A/An ____________ of a circle is a straight line that joins the center of the
circle to a point on the circumference.
2. Complete:
(i) A straight line joining any two points on the circumference of a circle is
Chord
called a/an __________
(ii) A straight line joining any two points on the circumference of a circle and
passing through the center of the circle is called a/an ______________ Diameter
Inscribed
3. A/An ________________ angle is an angle whose vertex lies on the
circumference of a circle and whose arms are two chords of the circle.
Lesson Purpose
A circle is a shape consisting of all points in
a plane that are at a given distance from a
given point, the centre.

PARTS OF CIRCLE

* Centre
The centre of the circle is the fixed point
from which all points on the boundary of
the circle are equidistant.
Often noted on diagrams as ‘O’.
Lesson Purpose
*Radius
The distance from the centre of a circle to
the outside. The radius of the circle is half
the diameter of the circle. The plural of
radius is radii.

*Diameter
The distance across the circle going through
the centre.
The diameter is twice the radius.

*Circumference
The distance once around the circle.
Lesson Purpose
*Arc
A part of the circumference.
Major arc – A major arc is greater than half
the circumference.
Minor arc – A minor arc is less than half the
circumference.
*Chord
A line segment going from one point of the
circumference to another but does not go
through the centre.

*Secant
A line that goes through the circle at two
points.
*Tangent
Lesson Purpose
A straight line that touches the circle at a
single point only.
*Sector
A section of the circle created by two radii.
Major sector – A major sector has a central
angle which is more than 180.
Minor sector – A minor sector has a central
angle which is less than 180.
*Semi circle
Half of a circle. Could be considered a
sector where the circle has be split by the
diameter.
Key Words
central angle, chord, circumference, diameter, inscribed angle, radius, semi-
circle
Lesson Activity
Item 1 Questions
1. (i) How many times longer than OC is AB?
(ii) What terms should Carl use to describe the parts of the
circle OC and AB?
2. (i) What shape is formed by arc ADB and line AB?
(ii) What fraction of the area of this shape is the shaded area
OBC?
3. If using string to form the two smaller triangles in Design 1
part (b) (without forming OC twice), how much
string will Carl need?
Lesson Activity
Item 2 Questions
1. Complete the conclusion that Carl can draw from what he observed
in Design 1 part (c): ‘For a semi-circle, the measure of the central
angle, ∠ AOB, is _____ the measure of the inscribed angle, ∠ ADB.
2. Carl has discovered that the three chords, AD, BD and AB form the
right triangle ADB. Without measuring any of the three sides, which
side of the triangle must be the longest side? Why?
3. Carl needs to find the area of triangle ADB for his design. He
measures the height DE of the triangle accurately and finds its length
to be 24 cm. Find the area of triangle ADB.
