Grade-10 Mathematics Chapter10 Circles

1) The document discusses key concepts related to circles such as lines related to circles like tangents, secants, diameters, and chords. It also covers topics like the number of tangents from a point and theorems related to tangents. 2) Theorems discussed include that tangents from a circle are perpendicular to the radius and that an external point can have two tangents to a circle. 3) Important corollaries are presented, such as two concentric circles having the line between two tangent points as the perpendicular bisector. Angle relationships for tangents from an external point are also summarized.
