1. Draw 4 concentric circles
2. Draw an internally tangent line to two circles3. Name two different types of segments that are equal.
4. Explain the difference between a secant & a chord5. What do you know about a tangent line and the radius drawn to the point of tangency?

if and only if their corresponding chords are congruent.

What can you tell me about segment AC if you know it is the perpendicular bisectors of segments DB?
It’s the DIAMETER!!!
Ex. 1 If a diameter of a circle is perpendicular to a chord, then the diameter bisects the chord and its arc.
