What does the notation [AB] represent in coordinate geometry?
The notation [AB] represents the line segment between points A and B.
What are radians?
Radians are a way of measuring of angles as an alternative to degrees.
1 radian is the angle in a sector with radius 1 and arc length 1.
What is the symbol for radians?
Radians are indicated with $^{c}$ but it is more typical to see $rad$ . Sometimes, if the angle includes $π$ , then no symbol is used as the use of radians is implied.
Degrees will always be indicated with º.
True or False?
$2 π rad = 180 º$ .
False.
$2 π rad = 360 º$ .
How do you convert an angle from radians to degrees?
To convert from radians to degrees, multiply by $\frac{180}{π}$ .
How do you convert an angle from degrees to radians?
To convert from degrees to radians, multiply by $\frac{π}{180}$ .
True or False?
In exams, you should always use degrees unless otherwise indicated.
False.
In exams, you should use radians unless otherwise indicated.
Define the term arc.
An arc is a part of the circumference of a circle.
Define the term radius.
The radius is the distance from the centre of a circle to the circumference.
Radius also refers to a line segment from the centre of a circle to the circumference.
Define the term sector.
A sector is a part of a circle enclosed by two radii and an arc.
True or False?
A minor arc has an angle at the centre less than 180° $(π rad)$ .
True.
A minor arc has an angle at the centre less than 180° $(π rad)$ .
