  2. Intersecting chords theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intersecting_chords_theorem

    In Euclidean geometry, the intersecting chords theorem, or just the chord theorem, is a statement that describes a relation of the four line segments created by two intersecting chords within a circle. It states that the products of the lengths of the line segments on each chord are equal.

  3. Constant chord theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constant_chord_theorem

    The constant chord theorem is a statement in elementary geometry about a property of certain chords in two intersecting circles. The circles k 1 {\displaystyle k_{1}} and k 2 {\displaystyle k_{2}} intersect in the points P {\displaystyle P} and Q {\displaystyle Q} .

  4. Chord (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chord_(geometry)

    Equal chords are subtended by equal angles from the center of the circle. A chord that passes through the center of a circle is called a diameter and is the longest chord of that specific circle. If the line extensions (secant lines) of chords AB and CD intersect at a point P, then their lengths satisfy AP·PB = CP·PD (power of a point theorem).

  5. Power of a point - Wikipedia

    Secant-, chord-theorem. For the intersecting secants theorem and chord theorem the power of a point plays the role of an invariant: . Intersecting secants theorem: For a point outside a circle and the intersection points , of a secant line with the following statement is true: | | | | = (), hence the product is independent of line .

  6. Inscribed angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inscribed_angle

    In geometry, an inscribed angle is the angle formed in the interior of a circle when two chords intersect on the circle. It can also be defined as the angle subtended at a point on the circle by two given points on the circle. Equivalently, an inscribed angle is defined by two chords of the circle sharing an endpoint.

  7. Cyclic quadrilateral - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclic_quadrilateral

    When the intersection is internal, the equality states that the product of the segment lengths into which E divides one diagonal equals that of the other diagonal. This is known as the intersecting chords theorem since the diagonals of the cyclic quadrilateral are chords of the circumcircle.

  9. Butterfly theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butterfly_theorem

    The butterfly theorem is a classical result in Euclidean geometry, which can be stated as follows: [1]: p. 78 Let M be the midpoint of a chord PQ of a circle, through which two other chords AB and CD are drawn; AD and BC intersect chord PQ at X and Y correspondingly. Then M is the midpoint of XY.
