  3. 3.3 CPCTC and Circles • Objectives: • Use CPCTC in proofs • Know and use basic properties of circles

  4. Congruent triangles: triangles whose corresponding parts are congruent. CPCTC Corresponding Part of Congruent Triangles are Congruent. This can be used in a proof only AFTER triangles have been proven congruent.

  5. Circle:the set of points in a plane equidistant from the one point, the center. Notation: circle C or C. Radius:the distance from the center of the circle to any point on the circle. Theorem 19: All radii of a circle are congruent. C

  6. Circumference of a Circle: C = 2r Area of a Circle: A = r2 Example 1: Find the circumference and area of a circle with a radius of 12 units.
