Example 1: Applying Congruent Angles, Arcs, and Chords TV WS. Find mWS. 9n – 11 = 7n + 11 2n = 22 n = 11 = 88° chords have arcs. Def. of arcs Substitute the given measures. Subtract 7n and add 11 to both sides. Divide both sides by 2. Substitute 11 for n. Simplify. mTV = mWS mWS = 7(11) + 11 TV WS

Example 2: Applying Congruent Angles, Arcs, and Chords C J, and mGCD mNJM. Find NM. GD = NM arcs have chords. GD NM GCD NJM Def. of chords

Example 2 Continued 14t – 26 = 5t + 1 9t = 27 NM = 5(3) + 1 = 16 Substitute the given measures. Subtract 5t and add 26 to both sides. Divide both sides by 9. Simplify. t = 3 Substitute 3 for t. C J, and mGCD mNJM. Find NM.

Example 3 PT bisects RPS. Find RT. 6x = 20 – 4x 10x = 20 x = 2 RT = 6(2) RT = 12 Add 4x to both sides. Divide both sides by 10. Substitute 2 for x. Simplify. RPT SPT RT = TS mRT mTS

Example 4 A B, and CD EF. Find mCD. Find each measure. 25y = (30y – 20) 20 = 5y 4 = y CD = 25(4) Subtract 25y from both sides. Add 20 to both sides. Divide both sides by 5. Substitute 4 for y. Simplify. mCD = 100 mCD = mEF chords have arcs. Substitute.

Find NP. Example 5: Using Radii and Chords Step 2 Use the Pythagorean Theorem. Step 3 Find NP. RN = 17 Radii of a are . SN 2 + RS 2 = RN 2 SN 2 + 8 2 = 17 2 SN 2 = 225 SN = 15 NP = 2(15) = 30 Substitute 8 for RS and 17 for RN. Subtract 8 2 from both sides. Take the square root of both sides. RM NP, so RM bisects NP. Step 1 Draw radius RN.

Example 6 Find QR to the nearest tenth. Step 2 Use the Pythagorean Theorem. Step 3 Find QR. PQ = 20 Radii of a are . TQ 2 + PT 2 = PQ 2 TQ 2 + 10 2 = 20 2 TQ 2 = 300 TQ 17.3 QR = 2(17.3) = 34.6 Substitute 10 for PT and 20 for PQ. Subtract 10 2 from both sides. Take the square root of both sides. PS QR, so PS bisects QR. Step 1 Draw radius PQ.

Lesson 8-4: Arcs and Chords 14 In a circle, if a diameter (or radius) is perpendicular to a chord, then it bisects the chord and its arc. E D A C B Example:If AB = 5 cm, find AE. Extra Examples or Mini Quiz:
15
Lesson 8-4: Arcs and Chords 15 In a circle, two chords are congruent if and only if they are equidistant from the center. O A B C D F E Example: If AB = 5 cm, find CD. Since AB = CD, CD = 5 cm. Extra Examples or Mini Quiz:
