    34 Inscribed Angle

    Uploaded by

    Austin Lauren
    An inscribed angle is an angle whose vertex is on a circle and whose sides contain chords of the circle. The measure of an inscribed angle is equal to half the measure of its intercepted arc according to the inscribed angle theorem. The document provides examples of using the inscribed angle theorem and semicircle theorem to find the measures of unknown angles and arcs.

    ANGLES
    OBJECTIVES:

     Define an inscribed angle;


     Determine the relations between an inscribed
    angle and its intercepted arc;
     Find the measures of the unknown angles or
    arcs using the theorems on inscribed angles.
    INSCRIBED ANGLE
    An angle which vertex is on the circle and
    which sides contain chords of the circle.

    In the figure, is an
    T inscribed angle and its
    intercepted arc is .

    C
    Identify the following:
    a. The intercepted arc of

    3x + 4 = 52
    3x = 52-4
    3x = 48
