  2. 10.2 Central Angle Objective: To use angle measures to find arc measures

  3. Central Angle and Arcs • A central angle is an angle whose vertex is the center of a circle. : Central Angle

  4. Central Angle and Arcs • Minor Arc: the piece of the circumference of the circle that is formed from a central angle less than 180 degrees. AB • Major Arc: piece of the circumference larger than 180 degrees. ADB • Semicircle: piece of the circumference that is exactly 180 degrees.

  5. Example 1:

  6. Measure of arcs • The measure of an arc is the same number of degrees as its angle. • Example 2:

  7. Example 3:

  8. Example 4: Congruent Arcs
