LESSON FIRST.LINES.Note to the Teacher.—In all the development-lessons, the pupils are to be occupied with the diagrams, and not with the printed matter. See Note A, Appendix. Refer to Diagram 1, and show that What are here drawn are intended to represent length only. They have a little width, that they may be seen. They are called lines. A line is that which has length only. POINTSShow that Position is denoted by a point. It occupies no space. It has some size, that it may be seen. The ends of a line are points. A line may be regarded as a succession of points. The intersection of two lines is a point. A point is named by placing a letter near it. Diagram 1. A point may be represented by a dot. The point is in the center of the dot. A point is that which denotes position only. A line is named by naming the points at its ends. Read all the lines in Diagram 1.

LESSON THIRTY-SECOND.THE CIRCLE AND ITS LINES.If the straight line c a were a string made fast at c, with a sharp pencil-point at the other end a, and the pencil-point were moved towards d, what line would be drawn? What kind of a line would it be? If the pencil-point continued to move in the same direction until it returned to the starting-point a, what curved line would be drawn, naming it by all the points in it which are marked? What point is at the centre of this figure? A circle is a plane figure bounded by a curved line, all points of which are equally distant from the centre. The curved line is called a “circumference.” The circumference of a circle is the curve which bounds it. Name a straight line that joins two points in the circumference. It is called a “chord.” A chord is a straight line that joins two points of a circumference. Read six chords in the diagram. Which two of these chords pass through the centre? They are called “diameters.” A diameter is a chord that passes through the centre. Name a line that joins the centre with a point of the circumference. It is called a “radius.”—(Plural, radii.) A radius is a straight line that joins the centre to a point of the circumference. Read five radii. Which is farther from the centre, the point a or the point d? Can the radius c d be greater than the radius c a? Or greater than c v, or c o? What do we call the lines o d, c d, c o? What part of the diameter o d is the radius o c? Name a chord that is produced without the circle. It is called a “secant.” A secant is a chord produced. Name two secants. If the chord d i were made a secant, would it become longer or shorter? In how many points does the straight line l m touch the circumference? It is called a “tangent.” A tangent is a straight line that touches a circumference in only one point. Name three tangents.

Diagram 25. LESSON THIRTY-FOURTH.ARCS AND DEGREES.What small part of the circumference of circle 1 (Diagram 25.) is marked? It is called an “arc.” An arc is any part of a circumference. Read five arcs that are marked. Which is longer, the arc e d, or the arc e f? b d, or b d e? a b d, or a b d e? Name an arc which is half of the circumference. It is called a “semi-circumference.” “Semi” means “half.” A semi-circumference is half of a circumference. Read three arcs, each of which is one-fourth of the circumference. If the whole circumference were divided into three hundred and sixty equal arcs, would each arc be large or small? Each of these arcs would be called a “degree.” [Degrees are marked (°).] A degree of a circumference is a three hundred and sixtieth part of it. How many degrees in a semi-circumference? How many degrees in one-fourth of a circumference? If a fourth of a circumference were divided into three equal parts, how many degrees would there be in each part? Is an arc of ninety-one degrees greater or less than one-fourth of a circumference? Is an arc of a hundred and seventy-nine degrees greater or less than a semi-circumference? Can there be more than three hundred and sixty degrees in a circumference? If the circumference of circle 1 were divided into degrees, each degree would be so small an arc that it would look like a dot. If a degree were divided into sixty equal parts, each part would be called a minute. If a minute were divided into sixty equal parts, each part would be called a second. How many degrees in the large circle of Fig. 2? How many in the smaller one? Has a large circle any more degrees than a small circle? In the large circle how many degrees from a to b? In the small circle how many from a to b? Which is greater, an arc of ninety degrees of the large circle, or one of ninety degrees of the small one? Which is greater, an arc of a degree of the large circle, or one of a degree of the small one? The angle a o b has its vertex at what part of the larger circle? At what part of the smaller circle? On how many degrees of the larger circle does the angle stand? Then it is said to be an angle of 90°. If the angle a o f is an angle of 30°, how many degrees must there be in the arc a f? If the arc f e is an arc of 60°, what is the size of the angle f o e? An angle of 10° stands upon an arc of how many degrees? Of 8°? Of 1°? The angle a o b is what kind of an angle? Upon how many degrees does it stand? Then a right angle is an angle of how many degrees? If an angle stand upon less than 90°, what kind of an angle is it? If an angle stand upon more than 90°, what kind of an angle is it? Can an angle have as many degrees as a hundred and eighty? LESSON THIRTY-FIFTH.REVIEW.Read nine arcs whose ends are marked.

LESSON THIRTY-SIXTH.PARTS OF THE CIRCLE.The part of the circle bounded by the chord a b and the arc a b is called a segment. Read three segments, each less than half a circle, thus,—the segment bounded by the chord a d and the arc a b d. A segment is a part of a circle bounded by an arc and a chord. Read two segments that are each half a circle. What is the chord called? What is the arc called? A semicircle is half a circle. Read four segments each larger than a semicircle. The part of the circle between the two radii o f, o i, and the arc f i, is called a “sector.” Read four sectors each less than one-fourth of a circle. 2.Thus, a sector bounded by the two radii o g, o h, and the arc g h. A sector is a part of a circle bounded by two radii and an arc. What part of the whole circle is the sector f o h? It is called a “quadrant.” A quadrant is a sector which is one-fourth of a circle. Read a sector which is greater than a quadrant. If the chord e f be regarded a diameter, what do you call the semicircle below it? If it be regarded as two radii, what is the semicircle called? Then a semicircle is both a segment and a sector. LESSON THIRTY-SEVENTH.REVIEW.Name ten segments. (Diagram 26.) What is a segment? Of the segments named, which are less than a semicircle?
