ANALYTIC GEOMETRY FORMULAS

Analytic Geometry is a branch of algebra, an invention of Descartes and Fermat. It deals with modelling some geometrical objects, such as lines, points, curves, and so on. The study of analytic geometry is important as it gives the knowledge for the next level of mathematics.

THEOREMES:

Chord theorem: The chord theorem states that if two chords, CD and EF intersect at G, then:

                         CD • DG = EG •FG

 

Tangent- secant theorem: if the tangent from an external point D intersects the circle at C and a secant from the external point D intersects the circle at G and E, then:

                           DC² = DG • DE

The secant-secant theorem: states that if two secants, DG & DE, cut the circle at H and F, respectively, then

                                                                                                         DH •DG = DF • DE

 

Property of the tangent chord: The angle formed by a tangent and a chords is the equal to the subtended angle on the chord’s opposite side.
