What else can I help you with?
Is the tangent of a circle its radius?
No, a tangent is a line that intersects a circle at exactly one point. The radius of a circle is the distance from the center of the circle to any point on the perimeter of the circle.
What is the length of the radius of the circle?
The radius of a circle is the length of the line from the center of the circle to any point on its edge.
Can a circle be drawn with any center and any radius?
The center of a circle is the same for all circles but the length of the radius can change
One radius of a circle is the same length as any other radius of any other radius?
The radius is the distance from the center of the circle to its edge. No matter how you draw this radius, it is one value of one length only, for any given circle.
How is the diameter and radius similar?
diameter is 2 times the length of the radius and is a line straight through the center of the circle. radius is half of the diameter and is a line from the center to a edge of the circle
Is the tangent of a circle its radius?
No, a tangent is a line that intersects a circle at exactly one point. The radius of a circle is the distance from the center of the circle to any point on the perimeter of the circle.
If a circle of radius 2 is externally tangent to a circle of radius 8 what is the length of their common tangent?
the length of thr direct common tangent will be 2*{1/2 power of (r1*r2)} the answer will be 8 units in this case...
What happens between a radius and a tangent in a circle?
A tangent is always perpendicular to the radius of a circle. A radius is a straight line going from the center of the circle to the circumference (edge) of the circle. A tangent is a straight line outside the circle that touched the circle at one (and only one) point. When a tangent touches the outside edge of the circle at the same point where a radius touches the edge of the circle, the angle between the radius and tangent line is 90 degrees meaning they are perpendicular.
What is the length of the radius of the circle?
The radius of a circle is the length of the line from the center of the circle to any point on its edge.
What is the Radius tangent theorem?
The tangent of a circle always meets the radius of a circle at right angles.
How do you change a diameter in radius?
The diameter of a circle is the length of a straight line that goes through the exact center of a circle. The radius of a circle is the length of a straight line that starts at the exact center and reaches the circle. The radius is half the length of the diameter.
What does the radius-tangent theorem state?
The radius-tangent theorem states that a radius drawn to the point of tangency of a circle is perpendicular to the tangent line at that point. This theorem is based on the fact that the radius of a circle is always perpendicular to the tangent line at the point where the tangent touches the circle. This relationship is crucial in geometry and helps in solving various problems related to circles and tangents.
Can a circle be drawn with any center and any radius?
The center of a circle is the same for all circles but the length of the radius can change
What are the different parts of a circle?
segment,tangent,radius,diameter,circumference,chord,semi-circle,center,arc and sector
What happens where a radius meets the tangent?
The radius and the tangent are perpendicular at the point on the circle where they meet.
What is the length from a circle's center to its circumference called?
the radius
If you know the length of a radius of a circle how can you find the length of the diameter?
The diameter of a circle is 2 times the radius. The radius of a circle is the distance from any point on the circle to the center of the circle, and the diameter is the distance from one side of the circle to the opposite side, passing through the center.
