 Properties of Circle Prelim Papers
symmetry properties of circles:
- equal chords are equidistant from the centre
- the perpendicular bisector of a chord passes through the centre
- tangents from an external point are equal in length
- the line joining an external point to the centre of the circle bisects
the
angle between the tangents
Lesson 9 angle properties of circles:
- angle in a semicircle is a right angle
- angle between tangent and radius of a circle is a right angle
- angle at the centre is twice the angle at the circumference
- angles in the same segment are equal
- angles in opposite segments are supplementary
