Troy, NY

Name: _________________________                          Due Date: ____________

Goals:

Day 1:  Identify parts of circles. Recognize major arcs, minor arcs, semicircles, and central angles.  Find measures of arcs and central angles.

Day 2:   Recognize and use relationships among arcs, chords, and diameters.

Day 3:   Recognize and find measures of inscribed angles.  Apply properties of inscribed figures.

Day 4:   Recognize tangents and use properties of tangents.

Day 5:   Find the measures of angles formed by intersecting secant and tangents in relation to intercepted arcs.

Day 6:   Use properties of chords, secants, and tangents to solve segment measure problems.

A Layer – no more than 10 points                     

_______        1.         Before it was discovered that Earth revolved around the Sun, it was believed that the sun and all the planets revolved around Earth in perfect circular orbits.  This model was known as the Ptolemaic system.  Read about this model and draw a diagram of the solar system according to Ptolemy. 

                        2.         Go to www.phschool.com/math/awsm/geometry/geo.html and complete two out of the three Super Lessons that are listed under Chapter 8:

                                    b.         Angles, Arcs, and Chords

                                    c.         The Inscribed Angle Theorem

4.                  Cutting Down on Waste.  You wish to cut five discs out of a square piece of tin.  The discs can be any size.  If you want to use as much tin as possible, where should the discs be located in the square, and what should be their radii?  Explain how you have come to your conclusion.  Then, demonstrate your results by cutting comparable disks out of a square piece of cardboard or wood.
