PARTS OF A CIRCLE (A) Identifying a circle as a set of points equidistant from a fixed point
A circle is a locus with all the points on the plane at a constant distance from a fixed point (known as the centre).
(a) Centre - fixed point in the middle of the circle with a constant distance from all points on the circle. (b) Circumference - the length of the border of the circle. (c) Radius - the length of straight line from the centre to any point on the circumference. (d) Diameter- the length of a straight line joining any two points on the circumference passing through the centre. The length of the diameteris twice the radius. (e) Chord - a straight line joining any two points on the circumference. The diameter is the longest chord in a circle. (f) Arc - a part of the circumference of a circle with end-points on the circle.
(i) Semicircle - one half of a circle formed within an arc and a diameter
(j) Quadrant - one quarter of a circle formed by an arc and two perpendicular radii.
