Title: Central Angles and Arcs
1Central Angles and Arcs
- An angle whose vertex is on the center of the
circle is a CENTRAL ANGLE. If it measures less
than 180, it is a minor arc. If it measures
180, the arc is a semicircle.

AB is a minor arc

ltAPB is a central angle

ACB is a major arc. Major arcs and
semicircles are denoted w/ 3 letters.

3Measuring an arc
- The measure of a minor arc is defined to be the
measure of its central angle.
A
So, if mltACB is 110, Then mAB 110

4Arc Addition Postulate
- The measure of an arc formed by two adjacent arcs
is the sum of the measures of the two arcs.
5Theorem 10.4
- In the same circle, or congruent circles, two
arcs are congruent if and only if their central
angles are congruent.
