What does parallel lines intercepted arc conjecture mean?
Parallel lines intercept congruent arcs on a circle. More explanation: Parallel lines never interSECT but they can interCEPT Congruent arcs means that the two arcs would have the same measure of the arcs.
If point 0 is the center of the circle identify all congruent segments?
Congruent segments will depend on the radius, and whether the segments are straight lines or arcs.
How you would construct a regular hexagon using a compass?
First draw a circle. Keeping the compass at the same angle; from any point on the circle's edge, draw another arc that intersects the circle's edge and (should) go through the centre as well. Repeat these arcs until you get back to the start. Using a ruler, connect the six intersect points on the edge of the circle and erase the construction lines.
Does a rainbow shape have parallel lines?
Strictly speaking, the answer is no. There is an implicit assumption that parallel lines refer to straight lines and, since there are no straight lines in a rainbow, there cannot be any parallel lines. The lines are concentric and so they never meet.
Divide a circle into 12 equal parts?
Use a pair of compasses to draw a circle. Without changing the compasses, place the point of the compasses on the circumference and draw a small arc such that it intersects the circumference. Put the point on this intersection and repeat until you have 6 equally spaced "intersections". Select 2 adjacent intersections and, from each of them, draw an arc outside the circumference such that the 2 arcs intersect. Draw a line from this intersection to the centre of the circle. This line intersects the circumference halfway between the adjacent points. With the compasses set to the original radius of the circle (it's better to leave them fixed at this throughout!) place the compasses' point on the intersection of the straight line and the circumference then draw a series of arcs, as you did originally. These will complete the division by 12
What is the point at which two or more lines or arcs cross?
They are points of intersection.
When constructing an angle bisector why must the arcs intersect?
The arcs must intersect because you need a point to use with the point of the angle's vertex to make the line that intersects the angle.
What does parallel lines intercepted arc conjecture mean?
Parallel lines intercept congruent arcs on a circle. More explanation: Parallel lines never interSECT but they can interCEPT Congruent arcs means that the two arcs would have the same measure of the arcs.
Draw a triangle with equal sides?
Draw a straight line. Set a compass to the length of the line. Scribe an arc from each end of the line so the arcs intersect. Draw straight lines from each end of the original line to the intersection point
Are curved lines wavy lines?
Multiple curves, or arcs, comprise a wave which generally consists of a crest (high point) and a trough (low point). So generally speaking, a wavy line would be two or more curved lines that are connected.
Is it possible to construct a perpendicular bisector to any given line segment using only a straightedge and a compas?
Yes Set the compass to wider than half the length of the line segment. Put the point of the compass on one end of the line segment and draw two arcs, one either side of the line (roughly near the middle). Put the point of the compass on the other end of the line segment and draw two further arcs to intersect the first two arcs. With a straight edge, join the two points where the arcs cross. This line is the perpendicular bisector of the original line segment.
How do you bisect an angle?
Take a compass. Open it so that it is a large enough radius to be easy to draw, but small enough that it still marks on both lines of the angle. Draw an arc that crosses both lines making up the angle, then place the point on each of these intersections and draw two more arcs of the same size so that they intersect. Using a straightedge, draw a line from the point of the angle to the intersection. That is the bisecting line.
The lines that mark a soccer field are called?
The lines that mark a soccer field are touch lines, goal lines, the halfway line, the center circle, corner arcs, goal area lines, penalty area lines, and penalty arcs.
Arcs of a circle that have exactly one point in common are called what?
Adjacent Arcs
In spherical geometry what do they call lines?
Arcs or curves.
When chords intersect in a circle the vertical angles formed intercept conruent arcs always sometimes never?
Sometimes
When chords intersect in a circle are the vertical angles formed intercept congruent arcs?
Not unless the chords are both diameters.
