How is a tangent different from a chord?
A Tangent is a straight line, outside the circle, that just touches the circle circumference in one place. A Chord is a straight line , inside the circle, but not passing throught the centre. and touches the circle circumference in two place.
What is the strait line from the circumference of a circle?
It could be a tangent or a chord.
Can a chord become a tangent?
No because a chord is a small part of the circumference and a tangent is a line outside of the circle that touches the circumference at a single point.
What is part of a circle?
Parts of a circle are:- Circumference Diameter Radius Chord Segment Sector Tangent
Is the measure of a tangent chord Angle is twice the measure of the intercepted arc inside the Angle.?
Yes, the measure of a tangent-chord angle is indeed twice the measure of the intercepted arc. This is a key property of circles in geometry. Specifically, if a tangent and a chord intersect at a point on the circle, the angle formed between them is equal to half the measure of the arc that lies between the points where the chord intersects the circle.
How many chords can a tangent contain?
A tangent to a circle can contain at most one chord, which is the line segment connecting two points on the circle that lies entirely within the circle. Since a tangent line only touches the circle at a single point and does not intersect it elsewhere, it cannot contain multiple chords. Therefore, regardless of how many points are on the circle, a tangent line can only be associated with one chord at that specific contact point.
Is it true or false that the measure of a tangent-chord angle is twice the measure of the intercepted arc inside the angle?
It is true that the measure of a tangent-chord angle is half the measure of the intercepted arc inside the angle. When a tangent line intersects a chord of a circle, it creates an angle between the tangent line and the chord, known as the tangent-chord angle. If we draw a segment from the center of the circle to the midpoint of the chord, it will bisect the chord, and the tangent-chord angle will be formed by two smaller angles, one at each end of this segment. Now, the intercepted arc inside the tangent-chord angle is the arc that lies between the endpoints of the chord and is inside the angle. The measure of this arc is half the measure of the central angle that subtends the same arc, which is equal to the measure of the angle formed by the two smaller angles at the ends of the segment that bisects the chord. Therefore, we can conclude that the measure of a tangent-chord angle is half the measure of the intercepted arc inside the angle.

list of parts of a circle?
They are:- circumference diameter radius sector arc chord segment tangent
What are all the parts of a circle in a geomtry way?
Properties of a circle are are as follows ;- Circumference, diameter, radius, tangent, sector, arc, chord and its segment
What it the measure of the tangent-chord angle when a circle is divided into three arcs in the ratio of 2 3 4 with the tangent-chord intercepting the smallest of the three arcs?
An angle formed by a tangent and a chord is measured by one-half its intercepted arc. Let x = unit part, so that our angle measure is x degrees (2x/2). Since there are 360 degrees in a circle, then 2x + 3x + 4x = 360 9x = 360 x = 40 (answer)
What is the chord that passes through the centre of a circle?
The chord that passes through the center of a circle is called the diameter. The measure of this chord is also called the diameter, and is used in calculations such as finding the circumference of a circle (Circumference equals pi times the diameter).^^wrong...it is eitherSecant or tangent im pretty sure its SECANT though...
