Inscribed Angles Section 6.4
4
Standards MM2G3. Students will understand the properties of circles. b. Understand and use properties of central, inscribed, and related angles.
5
Essential Questions What are the important circle measurements?
6
Essential Questions How do I use inscribed angles to solve problems? How do I use properties of inscribed polygons?
7
Definitions Inscribed angle – an angle whose vertex is on a circle and whose sides contain chords of the circle Intercepted arc – the arc that lies in the interior of an inscribed angle and has endpoints on the angle inscribed angle intercepted arc
8
Measure of an Inscribed Angle Theorem If an angle is inscribed in a circle, then its measure is half the measure of its intercepted arc.
9
Example 1 Find the measure of the blue arc or angle. a. b.
10
Congruent Inscribed Angles Theorem If two inscribed angles of a circle intercept the same arc, then the angles are congruent.
11
Example 2
12
Definitions Inscribed polygon – a polygon whose vertices all lie on a circle. Circumscribed circle – A circle with an inscribed polygon. The polygon is an inscribed polygon and the circle is a circumscribed circle.
13
Inscribed Right Triangle Theorem If a right triangle is inscribed in a circle, then the hypotenuse is a diameter of the circle. Conversely, if one side of an inscribed triangle is a diameter of the circle, then the triangle is a right triangle and the angle opposite the diameter is the right angle.
14
Inscribed Quadrilateral Theorem A quadrilateral can be inscribed in a circle if and only if its opposite angles are supplementary.
15
Example 3 Find the value of each variable. a. b.
