MATHEMATICS

1. The different terms related to circle:

Radius
- set distance between the center of the circle and the boundary of the circle

Diameter
- two radii (plural of radius) joint edge to edge, passing by the center of a circle

Arc
- two endpoints of a circle

Segment
- straight line with ends on a circle's perimeter

Chord
- section of a circle seperated by a chord from the rest of the circle

Tangent
- straight line outside the circle that touches only one point

Secant
- straight line that intersects at two points in a circle

Sector
- section of a circle that looks like a "pizza slice" in which is enclosed by two

Circumference
- the total distance measured of a circle

Center
- middle point of the circle’s circumference
2. The need to study circles extends to real life situations, being able to properly divide or
cut a pizza to a particular amount of people exceeding eight cuts is already a flex, but, on
a more serious reasons, being able to be knowledgeable in circles or geometry is crucial
in understanding distances between radii that useful in architecture and landscaping.
Circles have contributed a lot in terms of modernization and civilization, the invention of
wheels, parks,arenas, athletic tracks, and etc., has helped in the transformation of modern
living.

3. The formation of the angles by lines in a plane of a circle are related to intercepted
arcs because according to some theorems, let’s say theorem 3.1, it states that ‘The sum of
the measures of two adjacent arcs is equal to the measure of the arc formed.” that says
that any adjacent arcs (have a common vertex and a common side) is the same with the
measure of the intercepted arcs. Every angle have its corresponding measure to its
intercepted arcs such as the central angle is equal to the measure of the intercepted arc,
the inscribed angle is equal to the 1/2 measure of the intercepted arc. It doesn't matter
how big or where a circle is in the plane—these relationships always apply.

4.
a. Triangle - A triangle has 3 sides and 3 vertices that has no diagonals and has a sum of
the interior angles of 180 degree.
b. Parallelograms - Quadrilaterals with opposing sides parallel to one another are called
parallelograms. They have diagonals that bisect each other, two pairs of opposite
congruent sides, and a total of 180 degrees.
c. Trapezoid C. A trapezoid's total angles equal 360 degrees, yet the sum of the angles on
a single side equals 180 degrees. The median, which is parallel to both bases and whose
length is the average of the bases' respective lengths, is parallel to the bases as well.
d. Rhombus . A rhombus has equal sides on all sides, parallel sides on opposite angles,
and equal angles on opposite sides. Moreover, rhombus have perpendicular bisectors and
equal diagonals.
e. Rectangle - Having opposite side equal and opposite sides parallel and all angles equal
and 90 degrees makes up a rectangle.
f. Square - Square have equal side and angles of 90 degrees and parallel opposite sides.
