Copy of Diameters & Chords I (VA)

[color=#000000]Once you slide the slider in the applet below, you'll immediately notice a chord drawn and a[/color] [b][color=#6d9eeb]diameter drawn to this chord. [/color][/b][br][br][color=#000000]Interact with this applet for a few minutes, then answer the questions that follow. As always, be sure to change the locations of the BIG POINTS at any time before re-sliding the slider. [/color]
[color=#000000]1) What does the movement of the[/color] [color=#ff00ff]pink angle[/color] [color=#000000]imply about [b]the intersection[/b] of the diameter and this chord? [/color]
[color=#000000]2) Fill in the blank: [br][br]In essence, the action you observed from the[/color] [color=#ff00ff]pink angle[/color] [color=#000000]implies that this[/color] [color=#3d85c6]diameter[/color] [color=#000000]and this chord are __________________. [/color]
[color=#000000]3) If a[/color] [color=#3d85c6]diameter[/color] [color=#000000]intersects a chord in the manner you've described in your response to (2) above, what does this[/color] [color=#3d85c6]diameter[/color] [color=#000000]do to this chord? How was this evidenced in the applet above? [/color]
[color=#000000]4) If a[/color] [color=#3d85c6]diameter[/color] [color=#000000]intersects a chord in the manner you've described in your response to (2) above, what does this[/color] [color=#3d85c6]diameter[/color] [color=#000000]do to[/color] [b][color=#000000]the entire arc[/color][/b] [color=#000000]this chord intercepts? How was this evidenced in the applet above? [/color]
5) Formally prove your responses to exercises (3) and (4) above using a 2-column format.
