Inscribed Angle Definition: An inscribed angle has its vertex on the circle and its sides are chords. Picture:
Inscribed Angle Conjecture Conjecture: The measure of an angle inscribed in a circle is half the measure of the intercepted arc. Example: Inscribed (Angle A) Central (Angle B) Arc 50 100 80 160 40
