What is the subject-matter of Book III.? 2. Define equal circles. 3. What is the difference between a chord and a secant? 4. When does a secant become a tangent? 5. What is the difference between a segment of a circle and a sector p 6. What is meant by an angle in a segment? 7. If an arc of a circle be one-sixth of the whole circumference, what is the magnitude of the angle in it? 8. What are linear segments? 9. What is meant by an angle standing on a segment? 10. What are concyclic points? 11. What is a cyclic quadrilateral? 12. How many intersections can a line and a circle have? 13. What does the line become when the points of intersection become consecutive? 14. How many points of intersection can two circles have? 15.

What is the magnitude of the rectangle of the segments of a chord drawn through a point 3-65 metres distant from the centre of a circle whose radius is 4-25 metres? 24. The radii of two circles are 425 and 1 '75 feet respectively, and the distance between their centres 6'5 feet; find the lengths of their direct and their transverse common tangents. 25. If a point be h feet outside the circumference of a circle whose d...
