Key Topics to Revise

1

Angle Subtended by a Chord at a Point

  • The angle subtended by a line segment PQ at point R is ∠PRQ
  • Equal chords of a circle subtend equal angles at the centre
  • If angles subtended by chords at the centre are equal, then the chords are equal
2

Perpendicular from Centre to Chord

  • The perpendicular from the centre of a circle to a chord bisects the chord
  • The line from the centre that bisects a chord is perpendicular to the chord
  • Distance from centre to chord is the perpendicular distance
3

Equal Chords and Distance from Centre

  • Equal chords of a circle are equidistant from the centre
  • Chords equidistant from centre are equal in length
  • Distance is measured as perpendicular distance
4

Angle Subtended by Arc at Centre and on Circle

  • Congruent arcs subtend equal angles at the centre
  • Equal chords correspond to congruent arcs
  • Angle at centre = 2 × angle at any point on remaining circle
