Geometry (Circles)

Tim Brzezinski, Deirdre Longo, 6 juin 2018

[b]This GeoGebra Book contains lots of discovery-based learning activities, investigations, and meaningful remediation worksheets that were designed to help enhance students' learning of geometry concepts both inside and outside of the mathematics classroom. [color=#1551b5]This GeoGebra Book also contains contributions from from Dr. Ted Coe ([url]https://www.geogebra.org/tedcoe[/url])[/color] [/b]

Circle Terminology

[color=#000000]There are many vocabulary terms we use when talking about a circle. [br]The following app was designed to help you clearly see and interact with each term. [br][br]Explore this app for a few minutes. Then answer the questions that follow. [/color]
Note: LARGE POINTS are moveable.
How would you describe or define a [b]CIRCLE[/b] as a locus (set of points that meets specified criteria)?
How would you describe the term [b][color=#38761d]RADIUS[/color] [/b][i]without using the words "half" or "diameter" [/i]in your description?
What does the term [b][color=#9900ff]CHORD[/color] [/b]mean here in the context of a circle?
How would you describe the term [b][color=#ff7700]DIAMETER[/color] [/b][i]without using the words "two", "double", or "diameter" [/i]in your description?
How would you describe/define the term [b][color=#cc0000]SECANT[/color][/b]?
What does it mean for a line to be [b][color=#1e84cc]TANGENT [/color][/b]to a circle?

Circumcircle: Construction Exercise (VA)

[color=#000000]Use any of the tools in the limited toolbar below to construct this triangle's circumcircle. [br][br]You can use the slider to change the measure of angle [i]A[/i] at any time.

[color=#980000][b]Recall that the circumcenter is the center of a triangle's circumcircle. [br][/b][/color][br][b][color=#000000]Questions: [/color][/b][br][br][color=#000000]1) Is it ever possible for a triangle's circumcenter to lie OUTSIDE the triangle?

[br] If so, under what circumstance(s) will this occur? [br] [br]3) If your answer for (2) was "YES", where on the triangle did the circumcenter lie?[br] Use the tools of GeoGebra to validate your response.

Radius Unwrapper v2.0

Try to imagine how you might measure the subtended arc in terms of radius lengths. Once you have taken a guess use the slider to see the unfolded length. Turn on the radius ruler to confirm your guess. Geogebra will measure the angle in terms of radians, but it will restrict the answer on the interval of zero to 2 Pi.
