5 th Theorem
© T Madas O Cyclic Quadrilateral Opposite angles in a cyclic quadrilateral are supplementary
© T Madas 6 th Theorem
© T Madas O Tangent Tangent point A tangent and a radius drawn at any point on the circumference of the circle meet at right angles
© T Madas 7 th Theorem
© T Madas O The intersection of two tangents to a circle is equidistant from their points of contact. [Their angle of intersection and the central angle formed by the radii at the points of contact, are supplementary]
