1.Construct a large circle. 2.Construct a diameter. Label it AB. 3.Inscribe 2 angles in the same semicircle. Make sure the sides of each angle pass through A and B. 4.Measure each angle. What do you notice? A B © 2009, Dr. Jennifer L. Bell, LaGrange High School, LaGrange, Georgia

1.Construct a circle. 2.Select four points on the circle. 3.Construct a quadrilateral by connecting those points. 4.Measure each of the inscribed angles. 5.Compare the measures. What do you notice? © 2009, Dr. Jennifer L. Bell, LaGrange High School, LaGrange, Georgia

Construct a circle. Select 2 points on the circle. Label them A and B. Select a point P on the major arc. Construct the inscribed angle ∠ APB. Measure ∠ APB with your protractor. Record the measure. A B P © 2009, Dr. Jennifer L. Bell, LaGrange High School, LaGrange, Georgia

1)Draw a circle. 2)Draw a central angle. 3) Measure of your central angle. 4) What is the relationship between the central angle and its intercepted arc? The two measurements will be equal. 5) Using the endpoints of the intercepted arc, draw two chords that intersect at a point on the circle but not on the intercepted arc. © 2009, Dr. Jennifer L.

7) Make a prediction about the measure of the inscribed angle. 8) Measure the inscribed angle. It should be ½ the measure of the central angle. 9) Write a comparison about your predicted and actual measurements of the two angles. 10) Compare your data with your partner. © 2009, Dr. Jennifer L.
