A line touching an arc or circle at only one point perpendicular to the arcs?
tangent
A line touching an arc or circle at only one point perpendicular to the arc's radius is said to be?
tangent
What is the line touching the edge of a circle?
A circle doesn't really have an edge, per se. But I think what you are referring to is a tangent.A tangent is a line that touches the perimeter of the circle at only one point.(see related link)
Tangent of a circle is what?
A tangent of a circle is a straight line that touches the circle at only one point.
What line meets the circle at exactly one point?
The tangent line. A secant line hits the circle in two places and forms a cord, but the tangent line only hits the circle in one point and is always perpendicular to the radius of the circle which exists at that point.
Is the circle or straight line on?
A straight line touching the circumference of circle at one point is a tangent
A line that intersects a circle at exactly one point?
Such a line is called a tangent line or a tangent to the circle. [Tangent is Latin for touching-- a tangent line touches the circle at just one point. ]
A line touching an arc or circle at only one point perpendicular to the arcs?
tangent
What is tangent line?
tan A = (sin A) / (cos A) tan (A)= opposite side length/adjacent side length A is an angle measurement; amount of degrees or radians. If a line is tangent to a curve, it only touches the curve at one point. looks like )| but the line is touching the curve. In a circle, the tangent line touches the circle at one point and is perpinducular to the circle's radius if it is touching that same point.

Tangent of a circle is what?
A tangent of a circle is a straight line that touches the circle at only one point.
What is a straight line that just touches a circle in one place called?
A straight line touching a circle is called a tangent. The following is the image of a tangent to a circle with center C and radius AC. The tangent touches the circle at only one point - A. visit our page: balajidentalhospital .com
The point where the tangent line intersects a circle?
A tangent line touches the circumference of a circle at just one point but it does not intersect the circle.
What line meets the circle at exactly one point?
The tangent line. A secant line hits the circle in two places and forms a cord, but the tangent line only hits the circle in one point and is always perpendicular to the radius of the circle which exists at that point.
Which statement follows logically from the statement If a line is tangent to a circle then it intersects the circle at exactly one point?
If a line intersects a circle at exactly one point, it is a tangent to that circle
Are line may intersect a circle at exactly one point?
A tangent line touches the circumference of a circle exactly at one point.
