1 Circles and inscribed angles
An inscribed angle is an angle whose vertex is on a circle and whose sides contain chords of the circle

2 Intercepted arc The arc formed by an inscribed angle is the intercepted arc of that angle. Arc AC is the intercepted arc of angle ABC

3 Theorem 47-1 The measure of an inscribed angle is equal to half the measure of its intercepted arc m< ABC = 1/2 m arc AC 50o 25o

4 Theorem 47-2 If an inscribed angle intercepts a semicircle, then it is a right angle

5 Proving and applying inscribed angle theorem
1) name inscribed angle 2) name arc intercepted by it 3) if m< COD = 52, find m <CBD D

6 Finding angle measures in inscribed triangles
Find the measures of the 3 angles in the triangle 90o

7 Theorem 47-3 If 2 inscribed angles intercept the same arc, then they are congruent

8 Theorem 47-4 If a quadrilateral is inscribed in a circle, then it has supplementary opposite angles.

9 Finding angle measures in inscribed quadrilaterals
<A = 4z , < C = 3z+5 Find <C
