  1. Chapter 10.1 Notes: Use Properties of Tangents Goal: You will use properties of a tangent to a circle.

  2. Properties of a Circle • A circle is the set of all points in a plane that are equidistant from a given point called the center of the circle. • A segment whose endpoints are the center and any point on the circle is a radius. • A chord is a segment whose endpoints are on a circle. • A diameter is a chord that contains the center of the circle.

  3. A secant is a line that intersects a circle in two points. • A tangent is a line in the plane of a circle that intersects the circle in exactly one point, called the point of tangency.

  4. Ex.1: Tell whether the line, ray, or segment is best described as a radius, chord, diameter, secant, or tangent of a. b. c. d.

  5. Ex.2: Tell whether the line, ray, or segment is best described as a radius, chord, diameter, secant, or tangent of a. b. c. d.

  6. Ex.3: Use the diagram to find the given lengths. a. Radius of b. Diameter of c. Radius of d. Diameter of

  7. Properties of Tangents • Two circles can intersect in two points, one point, or no points. • Coplanar circles that intersect in one point are called tangent circles. • Coplanar circles that have a common center are called concentric circles.

  8. A line, ray, or segment that is tangent to two coplanar circles is called a common tangent. Ex.4: Tell how many common tangents the circles have and draw them. a. b. c.

  9. Theorem 10.1: In a plane, a line is tangent to a circle if and only if the line is perpendicular to a radius of the circle at its endpoint on the circle. Ex.5: In the diagram, is a radius of Is tangent to

  10. Ex.6: In the diagram, B is a point of tangency. Find the radius of • Theorem 10.2: Tangent segments from a common external point are congruent.

  11. Ex.7: is tangent to at S and is tangent to at T. Find the value of x. Ex.8: is tangent to Find the value of r.

  12. Ex.9: In is tangent at A and is tangent at B. Find x. Ex.10: Is tangent to

  13. Ex.11: Find the value of x.
