A common chord to two circles |
2012-04-22 |
|
From Nicole:
What is a common chord between two circles and how is it found in the problem: Two circles intersect and have a common chord, the radii of the circles are 13 and 15, the distance between the circle's centers is 14, find the common chord.

From crisfe:
find the point where the common cord of the circles x2+y2=25, x2+y2-12x-6y+35=0 process there line centers. what point they intercepts?

Two overlapping circles |
2010-04-12 |
|
From Scott:
There are two circles, big circle with radius R and small one with radius r. They intersect and overlap in such a way that the common area formed is 1/2 pi r^2 (half the area of the small circle). The Question is: suppose we have known the radius r of the small circle, and the distance between the two circle centers, what should the radius R of the large circle be?

The region between two circles |
2008-09-24 |
|
From Carol:
Good day!
Here is a picture of the problem that we need to solve. (I send the picture through e-mail.)
A small circle is inside a larger circle, the only given in the problem is the chord of the larger circle tangent to the smaller circle which measures 16cm. The question is, what is the area of the shaded region?
Can you answer this question? Thanks! :)

A tangent to two circles |
2008-04-13 |
|
From erson:
find the length of the tangent segment AB to two circles whose radii are a and b respectively, when the circles touch each other.
the illustration looks like this...hope you'll understand...
there are 2 circles - one is big one is small. they touch each other. and there is this irregular 4 sided polygon that connects them...there is a line that connects them from their center point and another from the tip of the circles...and that's it...i cannot explain very well
please bear with me

Constructing a tangent to two circles |
2002-11-28 |
|
From Tom:
I have two circles, different sizes a known distance from each other. We know the radii of the circles. How do I construct a line that is tangent to both circles relative to the segment that connects the centers of both circles?
