Geometry 11-4 Inscribed Angles
Vocabulary Inscribed angle- an angle whose vertex is on the circle and whose sides are chords.
Vocabulary Intercepted arc- the arc created by an inscribed angle (between the chords)
Theorem 1 The measure of an inscribed angle is half the measure of its intercepted arc. 100° 50° A B C
Example Find each measure.
Example Find the value of a.
Theorem 2 If two inscribed angles have the same intercepted arc, then the two inscribed angles are congruent. A B C D
Theorem 3 If a quadrilateral is inscribed in a circle, then its opposite angles are supplementary. A B C D
Example Find each angle measure.
