Circle Theorems

Cards (8)

  • The angle in a semi circle is 90°
  • The angle at the circumference is half the angle at the centre
  • The angles in the same segment from a common chord are equal
  • Opposite angle in a cyclic quadrilateral always add to 180°
  • The angle between a radius and a tangent is 90°
  • Alternate segment theorem
    the angle between the chord and the tangent is equal to opposite angle in the triangle
  • Tangents to a circle from the same point will be equal length
  • The radius through the midpoint of a chord will bisect the chord at 90°
