A secant is...

• Two parallel lines going through a circle

• A line going through the circle

• Three lines going through a circle

• A line that intersects a circle at two points

External Tangent:

• A tangent that is common to two circles and does not intersects the segment joining the centers of the circles

• A tangent that is common to two circles and intersects the segment joining the centers of the circles

Click anything that is true about Inscribed Angle

The center of the circle is (h,k). (x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2 Write the equation of the circle shown.

• (x+1)² + (y + 3)² = 2

• (x - 1)² - (y -3)² = 4

• (x - 1)² + (y - 3)² = 4

• (x + 1)² - (y+3)² = 2
