Learning Objective: To find lengths of segments formed by chords, tangents, and secants and to solve real world problems involving lengths of segments in circles. Ex 1 – Find RT and ST
Learning Objective: To find lengths of segments formed by chords, tangents, and secants and to solve real world problems involving lengths of segments in circles. Ex 2 – In the figure below, LN=14.2 and PN=13.5. Find MN and ON.
Learning Objective: To find lengths of segments formed by chords, tangents, and secants and to solve real world problems involving lengths of segments in circles. Ex 3–When the GPS system was designed, engineers wanted to minimize both the number of satellites and the distance that the transmitters needed to send signals. If a satellite is at an altitude of 9250 miles, how far do the transmitters need to be able to send signals? D A 9250 mi B 8000 mi C P E
