Inscribed Angles and Arcs • An inscribed angle is an angle whose vertex lies on a circle and whose sides are chords of the circle.
Inscribed Angle Theorem • The measure of an angle inscribed in a circle is equal to half the measure of the intercepted arc.
Right Angle Corollary • If an inscribed angle intercepts a semicircle, then the angle is a right angle.
Arc-Intercept Corollary • If two inscribed angles intercept the same arc, then they have the same measure.
