1 angents Use properties of tangents. Solve problems involving circumscribed polygons. Vocabulary tangent point of tangency are tangents related to track and field events? In July 001, Yipsi oreno of uba won her first major title in the hammer throw at the World thletic hampionships in dmonton, lberta, anada, with a throw of 70.6 meters. he hammer is a metal ball, usually weighing 16 pounds, attached to a steel wire at the end of which is a grip. he ball is spun around by the thrower and then released, with the greatest distance thrown winning the event. S he figure models the hammer throw event. ircle represents the circular area containing the spinning thrower. ay represents the path the hammer takes when released. is tangent to, because the line containing intersects the circle in eactly one point. his point is called the point of tangency. Study ip angent ines ll of the theorems applying to tangent lines also apply to parts of the line that are tangent to the circle. angents and adii odel Use he eometer s Sketchpad to draw a circle with center W. hen draw a segment tangent to W. abel the point of tangency as. hoose another point on the tangent and name it Y. raw WY. hink and iscuss 1.

Use the ythagorean heorem to find.

Study ip Identifying angents ever assume that a segment is tangent to a circle by appearance unless told otherwise. he figure must either have a right angle symbol or include the measurements that confirm a right angle. ample You will prove this theorem in ercise. Identify angents a. etermine whether is tangent to. irst determine whether is a right triangle by using the converse of the ythagorean heorem.

So, is not tangent to. esson 10- angents 3

4 Study ip ommon isconceptions Just because the circle is tangent to one or more of the sides of a polygon does not mean that the polygon is circumscribed about the circle, as shown in the second pair of figures. IUSI YS In esson 10-3, you learned that circles can be circumscribed about a polygon. ikewise, polygons can be circumscribed about a circle, or the circle is inscribed in the polygon. otice that the vertices of the polygon do not lie on the circle, but every side of the polygon is tangent to the circle. ample olygons are circumscribed. olygons are not circumscribed. riangles ircumscribed bout a ircle riangle is circumscribed about. ind the perimeter of if.
