Exploring the Relationship Between the Centre and a Chord
2017-03-08 04:54
This applet demonstrates circle properties, focusing on the relationship between the center and a chord. By constructing a circle, a chord, and the perpendicular distance from the center, it visually illustrates the connections among the radius, chord length, and center distance. Ideal for studying circle theorems in secondary math.
