A secant is a line that intersects the circle in two different points and a tangent is a line that intersects the circle in exactly one point, called the point of tangency. Secant and tangent theorems can be used to find congruency, similarity, and special length relationships between the two. One important theorem about secants and tangents states that the measure of an angle formed by two secants, a secant and a tangent, or two tangents intersecting in the interior of a circle is equal to one-half the difference of the measures of the intercepted arcs; that is, m = ½(far arc – near arc).
