Some Important Theorems of Circle

THEOREMS: 

1. The angle at the centre is twice the angle at the circumference.



2.The angle in a semi-cicle is 90°.


3. Angles in the same segment are equal.


4. Opposite angles in a cyclic quadrilateral add up to 180°.

5. The lengths of the two tangents from a point to a circle are equal.

6.The angle between a tangent and a radius in a circle is 90°.

7. Alternate segment theorem:

The angle (α) between the tangent and the chord at the point of         contact (D) is equal to the angle (β) in the alternate segment*.


MENSURATION FORMULAS


Mensuration Formulas


Mensuration is the branch of mathematics which deals with the study of Geometric shapes, their area, volume and related parameters.
Some important mensuration formulas are:
1. Area of rectangle (A) = length(l) × Breath(b)
 A = l \times b

2. Perimeter of a rectangle (P) = 2 × (Length(l) + Breath(b))
 P = 2 \times(l + b)

3. Area of a square (A) = Length (l) × Length (l)
 A = l \times l

4. Perimeter of a square (P) = 4 × Length (l)
P = 4 \times l

5. Area of a parallelogram(A) = Length(l) × Height(h)
 A = l \times h
Parallelogram

6. Perimeter of a parallelogram (P) = 2 × (length(l) + Breadth(b))
 P = 2 \times (l + b)

7. Area of a triangle (A) = (Base(b) × Height(b)) / 2
 A = \frac{1}{2} \times b \times h
Triangle
And for a triangle with sides measuring “a” , “b” and “c” , Perimeter = a+b+c
and s = semi perimeter = perimeter / 2 = (a+b+c)/2
And also: Area of triangle =  A = \sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}
This formulas is also knows as “Heron’s formula”.

8. Area of triangle(A) = 1/2 ab sinC = 1/2 ac sinB = 1/2 bc sinA
