  2. Circle theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle_theorem

    Circle theorem may refer to: Any of many theorems related to the circle; often taught as a group in GCSE mathematics. These include: Inscribed angle theorem. Thales' theorem, if A, B and C are points on a circle where the line AC is a diameter of the circle, then the angle ∠ABC is a right angle. Alternate segment theorem. Ptolemy's theorem.

  3. Gershgorin circle theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gershgorin_circle_theorem

    In mathematics, the Gershgorin circle theorem may be used to bound the spectrum of a square matrix. It was first published by the Soviet mathematician Semyon Aronovich Gershgorin in 1931. Gershgorin's name has been transliterated in several different ways, including Geršgorin, Gerschgorin, Gershgorin, Hershhorn, and Hirschhorn.

  4. Clifford's circle theorems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clifford's_circle_theorems

    The second theorem considers five circles in general position passing through a single point M. Each subset of four circles defines a new point P according to the first theorem. Then these five points all lie on a single circle C. The third theorem considers six circles in general position that pass through a single point M. Each subset of five ...

  5. Tangent lines to circles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tangent_lines_to_circles

    In Euclidean plane geometry, a tangent line to a circle is a line that touches the circle at exactly one point, never entering the circle's interior. Tangent lines to circles form the subject of several theorems , and play an important role in many geometrical constructions and proofs .

    A circle is a shape consisting of all points in a plane that are ... , where O is the centre of the circle (secant–secant theorem ). Inscribed angles ...

  8. Gauss circle problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gauss_circle_problem

    This problem is known as the primitive circle problem, as it involves searching for primitive solutions to the original circle problem. [9] It can be intuitively understood as the question of how many trees within a distance of r are visible in the Euclid's orchard , standing in the origin.

  9. Inscribed angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inscribed_angle

    As a consequence of the theorem, opposite angles of cyclic quadrilaterals sum to 180°; conversely, any quadrilateral for which this is true can be inscribed in a circle. As another example, the inscribed angle theorem is the basis for several theorems related to the power of a point with respect to a circle.
