10.2 Arcs and chords Pg 603
2
Central angle Central angle- angle whose vertex is the center of a circle A B C ACB is a central angle
3
Arcs Arc- a piece of a circle. Named with 2 or 3 letters Measured in degrees Minor arc- part of a circle that measures less than 180 o (named by 2 letters). A B B P BP (
4
More arcs Major arc- part of a circle that measures between 180 o and 360 o. (needs three letters to name) Semicircle- an arc whose endpts are the endpts of a diameter of the circle (OR ½ of a circle) A B C C S ABC or CBA ((
5
Arc measures Measure of a minor arc- measure of its central Measure of a major arc- 360 o minus measure of minor arc
6
Ex: find the arc measures A B C D E 50 o m AB= m BC= m AEC= m BCA= 50 o 130 o 180 o 180 o +130 o = 310 o 130 o 180 o ( ( ( ( OR 360 o - 50 o = 310 o
7
Post. 26 arc addition postulate The measure of an arc formed by two adjacent arcs is the sum of the measures of those arcs. A B C m ABC = m AB+ m BC ( ((
8
Congruency among arcs Congruent arcs- 2 arcs with the same measure MUST be from the same circle OR circles!!!
9
Example 30 o A B C D E m AB=30 o m DC=30 o AB DC ( ( ((
10
Ex: continued A B C D E 45 o m BD= 45 o m AE= 45 o BD AE ( ( (( The arcs are the same measure; so, why aren’t they ? The 2 circles are NOT !
11
Thm 10.4 In the same circle (or in circles), 2 minor arcs are iff their corresponding chords are . A B C AB BC iff AB BC ((
12
Thm 10.5 If a diameter of a circle is to a chord, then the diameter bisects the chord and its arc. E D G C F If EG is to DF, then DC CF and DG GF ((
13
If JK is a bisector of ML, then JK is a diameter. Thm 10.6 If one chord is a bisector of another chord then the 1 st chord is a diameter. J K L M
14
Ex: find m BC A B C D 3x+11 2x+47 By thm 10.4 BD BC. 3x+11=2x+47 x=36 2(36)+47 72+47 119 o ( ((
15
Thm10.7 In the same circle (or in circles), 2 chords are iff they are =dist from the center. DC A G F EB DE CB iff AG AF
16
Ex: find CG. A B C E F D 6 6 6 6 7 G 7 2 =CF 2 +6 2 49=CF 2 +36 13=CF 2 CF CG CF = ð13 CG = ð13
