Circle Theorems

Cards (8)

  • Angles in the same segment are equal
  • Angles in a cyclic quadrilateral add to 180
  • The angle at the centre is double the angle at the circumference when subtended by the same arc / chord
  • The angle in a semicircle is 90
  • The perpendicular bisector of a chord passes through the centre OR A diameter / radius meets a chord at 90
  • A radius meets a tangent at 90
  • Two tangents from the same external point are equal in length
  • Alternate segment theorem
