Lesson L VocabularyV circle center diameter radius congruent circles central angle semicircle minor arc major arc adjacent arcs circumference pi concentric circles arc length MHEMIL IE In a plane, a circle is the set of all points equidistant from a given point called the center. You name a circle by its center. ircle ( } ) is shown below. diameter is a segment that contains the center of a circle and has both endpoints on the circle. radius is a segment that has one endpoint at the center and the other endpoint on the circle. ongruent circles have congruent radii. central angle is an angle whose vertex is the center of the circle. is the center of the circle. is a central angle. is a diameter. is a radius. Essential Understanding You can find the length of part of a circle s circumference by relating it to an angle in the circle. n arc is a part of a circle. ne type of arc, a semicircle, is half of a circle. minor arc is smaller than a semicircle. major arc is larger than a semicircle. You name a minor arc by its endpoints and a major arc or a semicircle by its endpoints and another point on the arc. is a is a minor arc. major arc. Lesson 10-6 ircles and rcs 649
roblem 1 Naming rcs How can you identify the minor arcs? ince a minor arc contains all the points in the interior of a central angle, start by identifying the central angles in the diagram. What are the minor arcs of? he minor arcs are, E,, and E. What are the semicircles of? he semicircles are E, E, E, and. What are the major arcs of that contain point? he major arcs that contain point are, E, E, and E. E Got It? 1. a. What are the minor arcs of }? b. What are the semicircles of }? c. What are the major arcs of } that contain point Q? Q Key oncept rc Measure rc Measure he measure of a minor arc is equal to the measure of its corresponding central angle. he measure of a major arc is the measure of the related minor arc subtracted from 360. Example Q 50 m = m = 50 m Q = 360 - m = 310 he measure of a semicircle is 180. djacent arcs are arcs of the same circle that have exactly one point in common. You can add the measures of adjacent arcs just as you can add the measures of adjacent angles. ostulate 10-2 rc ddition ostulate he measure of the arc formed by two adjacent arcs is the sum of the measures of the two arcs. m = m + m 650 hapter 10 rea

What is the measure of each arc in }? a. m b. m c. m Q d. m Q 77 Q 28 he circumference of a circle is the distance around the circle. he number pi (p) is the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter. heorem 10-9 ircumference of a ircle he circumference of a circle is p times the diameter. = pd or = 2pr d r he number p is irrational, so you cannot write it as a terminating or repeating decimal. o approximate p, you can use 3.14, 22 7, or the key on your calculator. Many properties of circles deal with ratios that stay the same no matter what size the circle is. his is because all circles are similar to each other. o see this, consider the circles at the right. here is a translation that maps circle so that it shares the same center with circle. h k here also exists a dilation with scale factor k that maps circle h to circle. translation followed by a dilation is a similarity transformation. ecause a similarity transformation maps circle to circle, the two circles are similar. oplanar circles that have the same center are called concentric circles. h k oncentric circles Lesson 10-6 ircles and rcs 651

he measure of an arc is in degrees, while the arc length is a fraction of the circumference. onsider the arcs shown at the right. ince the circles are concentric, there is a dilation that maps 1 to 2. he same dilation maps the slice of the small circle to the slice of the large circle. ince corresponding lengths of similar figures are proportional, 1 2 u u r 1 a 1 u r 2 a 2 r 1 r 2 = a 1 a 2 r 1 a 2 = r 2 a 1 a 1 = r 1 a 2 r 2 his means that the arc length a 1 is equal to the radius r 1 times some number. o for a given central angle, the length of the arc it intercepts depends only on the radius. n arc of 60 represents 360 60, or 1 6, of the circle. o its arc length is 1 6 of the circumference. his observation suggests the following theorem. heorem 10-10 rc Length he length of an arc of a circle is the product of the ratio measure of the arc 360 and the circumference of the circle. m length of = 360 # 2pr = m 360 # pd r roblem 4 Finding rc Length What is the length of each arc shown in red?
