How To Make A Perpendicular Bisector

How To Make A Perpendicular Bisector
1) Open compass to just over halfway of the line segment.
2)Sharp point at point A make an arc.
3)Sharp point at point B make an arc.
4)With a ruler, join the 2 intersections of the arc.

New Circle Information

Circle Graphs (pi charts)- a graph made of a circle; a graph that represents data using sections of a circle.

Sector- is a section of a circle made up of 2 radii and an arc joining them.

EXAMPLE:















What percentage is the missing sector? 7%

Circles

Diameter is the distance across a circle through its centre

Some Examples:














Radius (radii is the plural) is the distance from the centre of a circle to its outer edge

Some Examples:















We can do the formula 2R=D this means that 2 radii are needed to make a diameter of a circle.
1/2 x D = R
D/2 = R
Example:

Geometry #1

Parallel Lines are lines in the same plain that NEVER touch.

2 Examples:
















Intersecting Lines are lines in the same plain that meet or intersect.

4 Examples:















Perpendicular are lines in the same plain that intersect at a 90 Degrees Angle

3 Examples:















Line Segment is a piece of a line with starting and ending points.

Example:















Try to name all the 7 line segments in this picture.
