10.5 Inscribed Angles
2
An inscribed angle is an angle whose vertex is on a circle and whose sides are determined by two chords. Intercepted arc: the arc that lies in the interior of an inscribed angle and has endpoints on the angle. inscribed angle Intercepted arc
3
A tangent-chord angle is an angle whose vertex is on a circle and whose sides are determined by a tangent and a chord that intersect at the tangents’ point of contact. Theorem 86: The measure of an inscribed angle or a tangent-chord angle (vertex on a circle) is one-half the measure of its intercepted arc.
4
A chord-chord angle is an angle formed by two chords that intersect inside a circle but not at the center. Theorem 87- The measure of a chord-chord angle is one-half the sum of the measures of the arcs intercepted by the chord-chord angle and its vertical angle.
5
A secant-tangent angle is an angle whose vertex is outside a circle and whose sides are determined by a secant and a tangent. A tangent-tangent angle is an angle whose vertex is outside a circle and whose sides are determined by two tangents. A secant-secant angle is an angle whose vertex is outside a circle and whose sides are determined by two secants. Theorem 88- The measure of a secant-tangent angle, a tangent-tangent angle, or a secant-secant angle (vertex outside the circle) is one-half the difference of the measures of the intercepted arcs.
6
There are three types of angles having a vertex outside a circle and both sides intersecting the circle.
