Using the Circles board as a guide, make lines and angles to understand different properties of a circle:
- Tangents and secants
- Angle between tangent and radius
- Number of tangents from a point
- Lengths of tangents from a common point
- Relation between tangent and secant from a point
- Verify the alternate segment theorem, secant theorem
Round and Round and Round
I have infinite points, yet the smallest of my size can be infinitesimal.
I am unending, but I definitely am not infinite in size.
Without me, Geometry is incomplete.
What am I?
A Circle, of course!
The endearing world of circles comprises of interesting concepts like the pie number, tangents, secants, angles and semi-circles! To fully understand circles in their glory, Butterfly Fields introduces to you the Circles board – a fun, easy-to-use and simple method to fully understand the concepts of circles!
With this kit, your child will learn:
- The properties of tangents and secants
- The angle between the tangent and radius
- Number of Tangents from a point
- Lengths of tangents from a common point
- Relation between tangent and secant from a point
- How to verify the alternate segment theorem
- How to verify the secant theorem
The hands-on experience of this project will help your child conquer circles with adept perseverance, sharper focus, and higher-order thinking skills. Enhance your child’s STEM (Science, Technological, Engineering and Mathematics) skills while improving their innovativeness, creativity and collaboration!
