What is tangential quadrilateral?
A tangential quadrilateral is a four sided polygon such that each of its sides is tangent to the same circle.
What is a circle in a square called?
An inscribed circle has its circumference tangent to each side of the square or other type of polygon surrounding it.
If a circle is tangent to each side of a hexagon then?
the hexagon is circumscribed about the circle
Can a tangent circle be concentric?
No; tangent circles touch each other at one point but concentric circles cannot not touch.
Which lines do you draw to find the center of a circle inscribed in a triangle?
In geometry, the incircle or inscribed circle of a triangle is the largest circle contained in the triangle; it touches (is tangent to) the three sides.The center of the incircle is called the triangle's incenter.The center of the incircle can be found as the intersection of the three internal angle bisectors.You draw three lines. Each line from one triangle head point to the opposite triangle side and bisecting the angle. These three lines will intersect in one point which is the circle center.
If a circle is tangent to each side of a given polygon then?
the circle is inscribed in the polygon :]
A circle inside a polygon where each side of the polygon is tangent to the circle?
the circle is inscribed in the polygon
A polygon in which each side is tangent to the circle?
A square or an equilateral triangle for example when a circle is inscribed within it.
What is tangential quadrilateral?
A tangential quadrilateral is a four sided polygon such that each of its sides is tangent to the same circle.
What does it mean for a circle to be inscribed in a polygon?
the circle is tangent to each side of the polygon And it's located within the polygon
What is a circle in a square called?

If a circle is inscribed in a hexagon which of the following must be true?
A. The hexagon is circumscribed about the circle . D. Each vertex of the hexagon lies outside the circle . E. The circle is tangent to each side of the hexagon .

A line that is tangent to two circles?
... touches each circle in exactly one point on each circle. given any two circles where none is entirely inside or inside and tangent to the other, there are at most four straight lines that are tangent to both circles.
Can a tangent circle be concentric?
No; tangent circles touch each other at one point but concentric circles cannot not touch.
Does a tangent circle pass through the center of the circle?
If the tangent circles are outside of one another, then neither passes through the center of the other. If one circle is within the other, then the inner tangent circle might contain the center point of the larger circle. There will be infinitely many inner tangent circles that do not.
How many different inscribed circles can be inscribed in a given triangle?
There is only one possible circle that can be inscribed in any triangle because all of the sides of the triangle must touch the circle at some point. Also, there is only one "incenter" of each circle. The incenter is the center of an inscribed circle.
