Teaching Outlines

Introduction

Welcome to the world of fascinating polygons, the CIRCLES. The following is a background literature for teachers. It summarises the concepts to be known for a teacher to teach this topic more effectively . This literature is meant to be a ready reference for the teacher to develop the concepts, inculcate necessary skills and impart knowledge in Geometry - Circles from Class 6 to Class 10.

Starting from the primary class, the students are exposed to circles with examples to the class 12th analytic treatment of the same. The pages here are designed to acquaint the teacher with basic definitions of circles from the 9th class to 10 standard.
