What does subtended mean?
The term "subtended" refers to the angle formed at a specific point by two lines or segments extending to meet at that point. In geometry, it often describes how an angle is formed by two radii of a circle meeting the circumference, with the arc between them being subtended by that angle. Essentially, it conveys the relationship between angles and the figures they encompass.
What is the Formula for calculating chord length?
Assume you mean the chord of a circle? If the angle between the two radii from the ends of the chord is A, and the radius of the circle is R, the chord length L will be L = 2RsinA/2. You can prove this easily by joining the point bisecting the chord to the centre, you then have two rightangled triangles, with an included angle of A/2, and an opposite side of L/2. So sinA/2 = L/2R.
What is the measure of an arc intercepted by an angle formed by a tangent and a chord drawn from the point of tangency if the angle measures 40 degrees?
150
What defines a chord in geometry?
A chord is a straight line that extends from one point of the circumference of a circle to another point on the circumference and the diameter of a circle is its largest chord
What is the shortest chord of a circle?
A point.

What is an arc central angle and radius of the circle?
Radius: A line from the center of a circle to a point on the circle. Central Angle: The angle subtended at the center of a circle by two given points on the circle.
What is the angle subtended by the circumference of a circle at its centre?
It is 360 degrees because angles around a point add up to 360 degrees
What is the measure of an arc intercepted by an angle formed by a tangent and a chord drawn from the point of tangency if the angle measures 40 degrees?
150
What is the measure of an arc intercepted by an angle formed by a tangent and a chord drawn from the point of tangency if the angle measures 40?
4/9*pi*r where r is the radius of the circle.
Low angle view?
this term is often confused with angle of field and field of view. The angle of view is the (diagonal) angle subtended by the scene captured in the photograph. This establishes the disc of best definition required for the lens. The angle of field is the angle subtended at the lens rear nodal point by the diagonal of the format itself. In a rectilinear image this is the same as the angle of view, but not for anamorphic images such as those produced by fisheye lenses. 'Field of view' simply describes the area covered in a scene. For example, although the angle of view of a fisheye lens is 180 degrees, its angle of field may be as low as 90 degrees. The field of view may be described as 'horizon to horizon'. For a standard (prime) lens the angle of field is typically 50-55 degrees, the same as the angle of view, and the field of view is roughly the same as that of the eye in a normal viewing of a scene or a picture.
What defines a chord in geometry?
A chord is a straight line that extends from one point of the circumference of a circle to another point on the circumference and the diameter of a circle is its largest chord
What do we use to show direction above the equator?
You are probably thinking of latitude, which shows distance from the equator as the angle subtended by the arc between the place and the nearest point on the equator. For instance, the latitude of London, United Kingdom, is 51.5 degrees N.
Why is a diameter always a chord but every chord is not always a diameter?
a diameter is always a chord because a chord always goes from one point of the circle to the other and a a diameter goes from one point to the midpoint
If a radius of a circle is perpendicular to a chord at what point does it intersect the chord?
The radius of the circle that is perpendicular to a chord intersects the chord at its midpoint, so it is said to bisect the chord.
What is the chord of a circle that is always smaller?
There is no chord that is always smaller since, in the limit, the chord reaches a single point on the circumference - when it it is no longer a chord!
