Week of November, 7 2016

Geometry

Reference Table for Solids
Volume is measured in cubic units.
Surface area is measured in square units.
Volume (V) and Surface Area (SA) FormulasNote:  Surface area formulas may need to be amended if the figure has "open" surfaces,
such as when working with a box without a lid or with an empty paper towel roll.
Rectangular Solid
V=lwh
SA=2lh + 2hw + 2lwThis formula assumes a "closed box", with all 6 sides.
Cylinder

This formula assumes a "closed container", with a top and bottom..
(optional formula)
Sphere
(optional formula)
Cone

This formula assumes a "closed container", with a bottom..

Week of 10/31/2016

Geometry

Circles and Chords
chord is a segment that joins two points of the circle.
diameter is a chord that contains the center of the circle.

Theorems:
1.2.
3.
In a circle, a radius perpendicular to a chord bisects the chord.In a circle, a radius that bisects a chord is perpendicular to the chord.
In a circle, the perpendicular bisector of a chord passes through the center of the circle.
Proof of Theorem 1:
StatementsReasons
1.1.Given
2.2.Two points determine exactly one line.
3. 3.Perpendicular lines meet to form right angles.
4.4.A right triangle contains one right angle.
5.5.Radii in a circle are congruent.
6.6.Reflexive Property - A segment is congruent to itself.
7.7.HL - If the hypotenuse and leg of one right triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another triangle, the triangles are congruent.
8.8.CPCTC - Corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent.
9.E is the midpoint of 9.Midpoint of a line segment is the point on that line segment that divides the segment two congruent segments.
10.10.Bisector of a line segment is any line (or subset of a line) that intersects the segment at its midpoint.

 
Theorem:
In a circle, or congruent circles, congruent chords are equidistant from the center.
(converse) In a circle, or congruent circles, chords equidistant from the center are congruent.


Theorem:
In a circle, or congruent circles, congruent chords have congruent arcs.(converse) In a circle, or congruent circles, congruent arcs have congruent chords.

 ;   

Theorem:

In a circle, parallel chords intercept congruent arcs.
