1 Section 10-3 Inscribed Angles

2 Inscribed angles An angle whose vertex is on a circle and whose sides contain chords of the circle. A B D is an inscribed angle.

3 Intercepted arc The arc that lies in the interior of an inscribed angle and has endpoints on the angle.

4 Measure of an Inscribed Angle Theorem If an angle is inscribed in a circle, then its measure is half the measure of its intercepted arc.

5 A R T Example: If then m = If m = then =

6 An angle inscribed in a semicircle is a right angle. C A T Circle S S Q

7 Theorem 10-9 If two inscribed angles intercept the same arc, then the angles are congruent. 2 1

8 INSCRIBED Inside another shape CircumSCRIBED Outside another shape

9 If all the vertices of a polygon lie on the circle, the polygon is inscribed in the circle and the circle is circumscribed about the polygon.

10 When each side of a polygon is tangent to a circle, the polygon is said to be circumscribed about the circle and the circle is inscribed in the polygon.

11 If a right triangle is inscribed in a circle, then the hypotenuse is a diameter of the circle. Theorem 10-10

12 D G O Therefore, is a diameter of the circle.

13 Theorem 10-11 If a quadrilateral is inscribed in a circle, then its opposite angles are supplementary. Q A U D are supplementary are supplementary
