Tangents
- Tangent Theorems:
- If a line is a tangent to a circle, then it is perpendicular to the radius drawn to the point of tangency
- In a plane, if a line is perpendicular to a radius of a circle at the endpoint on the circle, then the line is a tangent of the circle
- Know what common external tangents and common internal tangents are using geometric pictures
- Tangent segments: If two segments from the same exterior point are tangent to a circle, then they are congruent
- Circumscribed Polygons: A polygon is circumscribed about a circle if each side of the polygon is tangent to the circle
