Card 1 of 20. Answer hidden.
Prompt
In one circle, what follows from congruent arcs?
Answer
Their corresponding chords are congruent.
Prompt
In one circle, what follows from congruent chords?
Answer
Their corresponding minor arcs are congruent.
Prompt
What does a diameter perpendicular to a chord do?
Answer
It bisects the chord and its intercepted arc.
Prompt
What is true of chords equidistant from the center?
Answer
They are congruent.
Prompt
What is the converse equidistant-chord fact?
Answer
Congruent chords are equidistant from the center.
Prompt
What right-triangle formula connects radius, chord, and center distance?
Answer
\(d^2+(c/2)^2=r^2\).
Prompt
Why does the formula use c/2?
Answer
The perpendicular center segment bisects the chord.
Prompt
After solving for a half-chord, what final check is needed?
Answer
Double it if the question asks for the full chord.
Prompt
What is the longest possible chord in radius-r circle?
Answer
The diameter, \(2r\).
Prompt
Radius 13 and chord 10 give what center distance?
Answer
12.
Prompt
Radius 10 and center distance 8 give what chord?
Answer
12.
Prompt
Equal center distances are measured in what direction?
Answer
Perpendicularly from center to each chord.
Prompt
May the full chord be used as a right-triangle leg?
Answer
No; one triangle contains half the chord.
Prompt
What information links curved arcs to straight chord lengths?
Answer
Congruence in the same or congruent circles.
Prompt
Does this lesson require power-of-a-point products?
Answer
No; use only the stated chord theorems and right-triangle model.
Prompt
How do you test whether a proposed chord is possible?
Answer
Verify its length is at most the diameter.
Prompt
Radius 25 and chord 30 give what center distance?
Answer
20.
Prompt
A chord's halves are 4x+1 and 7x-20. Find x.
Answer
7.
Prompt
Equal-distance chords: one is 42. What is the other?
Answer
42.
Prompt
Two equal parallel chords lie on opposite sides, each 20 from center. Separation?
Answer
40.
