Geometry 11-4 Inscribed Angles • Inscribed angle- an angle whose vertex is onthe circle. • Intercepted arc- the arc in between the sides of the angle AC is the intercepted arc
A 100° C 50° B Theorem 1 • The inscribed angle is half the measure of the intercepted arc.
Example • Find each measure.
Example • Find the value of a.
Example • Determine the value of x. (3x – 20)° x°
D C B A Theorem 2 • If a quadrilateral is inscribed in a circle, then its opposite angles are supplementary.
Example • Find the value of b.
