Any point P with coordinates (\(x, y\)) on the circumference of a circle can be joined to the centre (0, 0) by a straight line that forms the hypotenuse of a right angle triangle with sides of length ...
As the tangent is a straight line, the equation of the tangent will be of the form \(y = mx + c\). We can use perpendicular gradients to find the value of \(m\), then use the coordinates of P to find ...
March 14, National Pi Day, honors 3.14 (Ï€) the ratio of the circumference of a circle. Whether you're challenging yourself to find how many decimal placements are actually in Pi (Ï€) or you're eating ...
