Those darn circles :)
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Interior intersections If there are two lines or segments that intersect inside a circle (like a wonky 'X'), what formula would you use to find the angles? | Add the two opposite arcs of the angle and divide the sum by two |
| Exterior intersections what is the formula for finding exterior angles in "arcs and angles"? | big arc minus small arc divided by two (big-small)/2 |
| Segment lengths 'X' lengths formula | a x b = c x d |
| Segment lengths "bird beak not touching sides" lengths formula | a(a+b) = c(c+d) a and c are outside of the circle |
| segment lengths "one is a tangent" lengths formula | a^2 = b(b+c) a and b are outside of the circle, a is on the tangent side |
| REMINDER! PAY CLOSE ATTENTION TO THE GIVENS AND NUMBERS FOR THE BIG CIRCLES! | |
| For finding the value of x in arcs and angles. Don't forget to | distribute the negative to both pieces! |
