Geometry (Class 85)

Lesson Title
Circles (4): Intersecting Chords

Overview
Students have the opportunity to do their final work on the problems from Chapter 10 Lesson 1 and Chapter 10 Lesson 2 during the first 25 minutes of class. These assignments will then be turned in. The lesson for the day continues with Chapter 10- Lesson 3: Intersecting Chords of a Circle and Chapter 10- Lesson 4: Extended Chords of Circle

Key Attitudes
Math is about building up understanding one idea at a time.

Key Ideas
If two chords intersect in the interior of a circle, then the product of the lengths of the segments of one chord is equal to the product of the lengths of the segments of the other chord.
In the same circle, or in congruent circles, tow minor arcs are congruent if an only if their corresponding chords are congruent.
If a diameter of a circle is perpendicular to a chord, then the diameter bisects the chord and its arc.
If one chord is a perpendicular bisector of another, then the first chord is a diameter.
In the same circle, or congruent circles, two chords are congruent if and only if they are equidistant from the center of the circle.
Key Skills
I can use properties of intersecting chords to solve problems.
I can use properties of extended chords to solve problems.
