Page 3 questions

A secant passes through a circle. The two points it passes through are called intercepts. While a tangent is a straight line that touches the circle once. This point is called the point of contact.

1. What is the difference between a secant and a tangent?

2. Draw a secant and a tangent to the circle below. Label the "point of contact".

3. What’s the difference between an intercept and a "point of contact"?
