9.1 – Tangent Properties & Angle Relationships
Tangent perpendicular to radius, equal tangents, external/internal tangency
This section covers the fundamental properties of tangents: a tangent is perpendicular to the radius at the point of contact, tangents from an external point are equal, and the relationships for circles touching externally or internally.
Tangent properties & applications
9.2 – Angles in Circles & Arc Length
Central angles, inscribed angles, same segment, cyclic quadrilaterals, arc length, sector area
This section covers angle relationships in circles: central angles, inscribed angles, angles in the same segment, angles in a semicircle, cyclic quadrilaterals, and arc length and sector area calculations using radians.
