Is a circle a function?
The shape of a circle IS capable of being described by an algebraic function. so no
If A line segment drawn from the center to any point on the circle it is called?
A line segment drawn from the center of a circle to any point on the circle is called a radius. The radius is constant for a given circle and is crucial in defining the circle's size. All points on the circumference of the circle are equidistant from the center, with this distance being the length of the radius.
Do lines of latitude sometimes intersect explain?
Lines of latitude encircle the earth, with the Great Circle being the Equator. Each line of latitude is parallel to each other, so will never intersect.
What is the name of the largest imaginary circle on the globe is it longitude or latitude?
The largest imaginary circle on the globe is the equator, which is a line of latitude. It divides the Earth into the Northern and Southern Hemispheres and is located at 0 degrees latitude. Longitudes, on the other hand, are lines that run from pole to pole and vary in length, being widest at the equator and converging at the poles.
What shape of the planets orbit?
The planets orbit in an ellipse. An ellipse is described as a geometric shape where the sum of the distance from the foci at any point is the same. An ellipse has three main points. Two foci and a center like a circle. While a true circle has all its external points equidistant from its center, an ellipse measures its points from the foci, which are equidistant to the center point at on both sides. The planets ellipse is closer to a circle than an all out ellipse, however, the orbit is still a true ellipse. It is also true that the shape of a planet's orbit (an ellipse) is a conic section, i.e. the intersection of a right circular cone where the intersecting plane is not perpendicular to the cone's axis, but less than being parallel to one of the cone's nappes.
Does a circle have an area?
A circle *encloses* an area, and the "area of a circle" is the area it encloses, πr^2. A circle is a 1-dimensional curved line; it is a set of points equidistant from a given point (the center), with that distance being the radius of the circle. This means the inside of the circle is not part of the circle (it's called a disk if you include the inside points).To find the area, multiply pi (π) by the radius squared (r^2), so you get πr^2.Yes, it does.
Do weights have to be equidistant from the fulcrum to make it even?
If you have two objects of equal weight on either end of a lever, then they must be equidistant from the fulcrum to make the lever balance.If one object weighs more than the other, then that one has to be closer to the fulcrum.
Are the lines of longitude all the same length?
no they are notThe lines of latitude run East/West. Each line forms a circle around the earth. The equator is at latitude zero degrees, and it encircles the earth. As we travel further and further North the earth, being a globe shape, gets narrower and narrower the further North we go. So all the circles get smaller and smaller as we move from the equator to the North. The lines of latitude are parallel to each other.Montreal, in Canada, is about 45o latitude, that is, halfway between the equator and the North pole, so a horizontal circle at that point would be smaller than the circle of latitude at the equator.At 80o North, the circle of latitude at that angle from the equator is just a small circle around the North pole. At 890 degrees North it is nearly at the North pole and the circle is very small. The North pole itself is at a latitude (angle) of 900, and there is no circle at all! It's smaller than a dot!The lines of longitude run from the North pole to the South pole. All the lines run from the top of the earth to the bottom of the earth. The lines converge at the poles, and are widest at the equator. Unlike the lines of latitude, all lines of longitude are the same length.For more information, see 'Related Links' below.
What is a tattoo with a straight line through the center of a circle?
It can possibly be a reference to the Kim Harrison book series "The Hollows". The main character receives a "demon mark" in the first book on her wrist. It is described as being a straight line through the center of a circle.
What is a plane that curves with each point on the curve of being equidistant from a fixed point at the center of the figure?
a globe.
What is the different between rectangle and circle?
A rectangle is a four-sided polygon (quadrilateral) with opposite sides that are equal in length and four right angles, while a circle is a round shape defined by all points being equidistant from a central point. The rectangle has straight edges and corners, whereas the circle has a continuous curved boundary without corners. Additionally, the area of a rectangle is calculated using length and width, while the area of a circle is determined using the formula πr², where r is the radius.
Can lines be wavy?
Parallel-being everywhere equidistant and not intersectingLine-A geometric object that is straight, infinitely long and infinitely thin.So two "wavy lines" (that never intersect and are equidistant) would fulfill the definition of "parallel," but not of "line."
