1 Chapter 7 Lesson 6 Objective: To find the measures of central angles and arcs.

2 Central Angles and Arcs In a plane, a circle is the set of all points. In a plane, a circle is the set of all points. The set of all points equidistant from a given point is the center. The set of all points equidistant from a given point is the center. A radius is a segment that has one endpoint at the center and the other endpoint on the circle. A radius is a segment that has one endpoint at the center and the other endpoint on the circle. A diameter is a segment that contains the center of a circle and has both endpoints on the circle. A diameter is a segment that contains the center of a circle and has both endpoints on the circle.

3 Congruent Circles have congruent radii. 5 m Central Angle is an angle whose vertex is the center of the circle. A B CD

4 Example 1 Finding Central Angles **Remember a circle measures 360°.** Sleep: Sleep: 31% of 360.31360=111.6 Food: Food: 9% of 360.09360=32.4 Work: Work: 20% of 360.20360=72 Must Do: Must Do: 7% of 360.07360=25.2 Entertainment: Entertainment: 18% of 360.18360=64.8 Other: Other: 15% of 360.15360=54

5 arc An arc is a part of a circle. Types of arcs Semicircle is half of a circle. A DAE A minor arc is smaller than a semicircle.minor arc A major arc is greater than a semicircle.major arc AB Minor arc D ADB Major arc

6 Example 2: Identifying Arcs Identify the following in O. 1.the minor arcs 2.the semicircles 3. the major arcs that contain point A O A C D E

7 Example 3: Identifying Arcs Identify the minor arcs, major arcs and semicircles in O with point A as an endpoint. O A B D E minor arcs AD, AE major arcs ADE, AED semicircles ADB, AEB

8 Adjacent arcs Adjacent arcsAdjacent arcs Adjacent arcs are arcs of the same circle that have exactly one point in common. Postulate 7-1 Postulate 7-1: Arc Addition Postulate The measure of the arc formed by two adjacent arcs is the sum of the measures of the two arcs. A B C mABC = mAB + mBC

9 Example 4: Finding the Measures of Arcs Find the measure of each arc. 58° 32° A B C D O BC BD ABC ABC is a semicircle. AB

10 Example 5: Finding the Measures of Arcs 56° 40° M C W X D Y Find mXY and mDXM in C. mXY = mXD + mDY mXY = 40 + 56 =96 mDXM = mDX + 180 mDXM = 40 + 180 mDXM = 220
