EXAMPLE 1 Find measures of arcs RS a. RTS b. RST c. SOLUTION RS is a minor arc, so mRS = m RPS = 110 o. a. RTS is a major arc, so mRTS = 360 o 110 o = 250 o. b. – Find the measure of each arc of P, where RT is a diameter. c. RT is a diameter, so RST is a semicircle, and mRST = 180 o.

EXAMPLE 2 Find measures of arcs A recent survey asked teenagers if they would rather meet a famous musician, athlete, actor, inventor, or other person. The results are shown in the circle graph. Find the indicated arc measures. Survey a. mAC SOLUTION a. mAC mAB =+ mBC = 29 o + 108 o = 137 o
3
EXAMPLE 2 Find measures of arcs b. mACD = mAC + mCD = 137 o + 83 o = 220 o A recent survey asked teenagers if they would rather meet a famous musician, athlete, actor, inventor, or other person. The results are shown in the circle graph. Find the indicated arc measures. Survey SOLUTION b. mACD
4
EXAMPLE 2 Find measures of arcs mADC mAC = 360 o – c. = 360 o – 137 o = 223 o A recent survey asked teenagers if they would rather meet a famous musician, athlete, actor, inventor, or other person. The results are shown in the circle graph. Find the indicated arc measures. Survey SOLUTION c. mADC
5
EXAMPLE 2 Find measures of arcs d. mEBD = 360 o – mED = 360 o – 61 o = 299 o d. mEBD A recent survey asked teenagers if they would rather meet a famous musician, athlete, actor, inventor, or other person. The results are shown in the circle graph. Find the indicated arc measures. Survey SOLUTION
6
GUIDED PRACTICE for Examples 1 and 2 Identify the given arc as a major arc, minor arc, or semicircle, and find the measure of the arc.
7
TQ is a minor arc, so m TQ = 120 o. GUIDED PRACTICE for Examples 1 and 2 1. TQ SOLUTION. QRT2 SOLUTION QRT is a major arc, so m QRT= 240 o.
8
GUIDED PRACTICE for Examples 1 and 2. TQR3 SOLUTION TQR is a semicircle, so m TQR = 180 o.. QS4 SOLUTION QS is a minor arc, so m QS = 160 o.
9
GUIDED PRACTICE for Examples 1 and 2. TS5 SOLUTION TS is a minor arc, so m TS = 80 o.. RST6 SOLUTION RST is a semicircle, so m RST = 180 o.
