What to Focus On

  • Centre is the fixed point inside the circle.
  • Radius is the fixed distance from the centre.
  • Circumference is the boundary of the circle.

  • Distance equal to radius: point on circumference.
  • Distance less than radius: point in interior.
  • Distance greater than radius: point in exterior.

  • Arc is a part of the circumference.
  • A diameter divides the circumference into two equal arcs.
  • Each equal arc formed by a diameter is a semi-circle.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Every chord is a diameter.

The diameter is equal to the radius.

A chord of length equal to or greater than the diameter can exist in the same circle.
