TRUE FRIENDSHIP

Who are true friends?

Are they the ones that do you wrong and don't see it?

Or are they the ones that do you right and regret it?

Not much choice up there is there?

I felt myself sigh and i wondered why;

I say it is a thought.

How do you know your true friends?

Are my so-called friends for real?

Do they feel what i feel?

Should they feel what I feel?

How about the ones who say they like me.

but behind my back they are only fighting me?

How about the ones who seemingly wants the best for me,

but is really trying to make a mess of me?

what about the ones that made me cry,

but that's not all, their wish was to see me die?

True friends wrong you unknowingly.

but apologizes with endless sincerity.

True friendship has ups and downs,

So when i'm not talking to you i will never regret

................... giving you my crown..........

True friends never lie,

because they never want to see you cry.

They may not feel your pain,

but they stick with you until it goes away.

A true friend speaks issues before your face and

when all is said and done comforts you with an embrace.

Fighting you is not an option

but fighting the one who hurts you is a thought.

For you they go the extra mile,

just to put the Mile in your sMile.

My wish for me is to go up,

but me going up doesn't mean you going down.

Me smiling, doesn't mean you should frown

Normal Friendship fail, but true friendship

though broken will piece itself together again.

Here ends another chapter

may you gain wisdom and prevent disaster.

All About Circles

What is a circle?

A circle is the set of all points in a plane; all of which are equidistant apart from a fixed point F.

Therefore an ellipse is not a circle because the points are not equidistant apart.

If this fixed point 'F', lies in the same plane as the plane of the circle then that fixed point is called the centre; if you don't know why let me tell you, if it is not in the same plane, it would be in another plane and that would make it a sphere.  

A radius is the line segment that goes from the centre. It is referred to as a A radius because there are many radii in the circle-in fact an infinite number of radii exist within the circle.

A diameter is a chord that passes through the centre of a circle. Yes I said it, a chord, it is a chord only a major one at that.

  A chord of a circle is a straight line segment whose end points lie on the circle. There exists major chords and minor chords within the circle. The chord shown below would be considered a minor chord and the diameter shown above is considered a major chord.

An arc of a circle is a portion of the circle whose length is greater than zero and less than the circumference of the circle. In case you are not understanding, it is the curved part of the circle but it must be less than the whole length of the curved part.  It is the part labelled L below on the circle.

A semi-circle is an arc of a circle whose length is half the circumference of the circle, that is, half the length of the curve portion.

A segment of a circle is the region in the circle bounded by a chord and an arc, which in the circle below would be the area shaded blue.


A sector of a circle is a region in the circle bounded by two radii and a arc.  So in the circle  below, the sector would be the area shaded in green.

That, gentlefriends is the basics of a circle. If you wish to know about solving further circle problems, write to us,
