Other Angle Relationships in Circles
2
Objectives/Assignment

• Use angles formed by tangents and chords to solve
  problems in geometry.
• Use angles formed by lines that intersect a
  circle to solve problems.

3
Using Tangents and Chords

• You know that measure of an angle inscribed in a
  circle is half the measure of its intercepted
  arc. This is true even if one side of the angle
  is tangent to the circle.

m?ADB ½m

Tangent to a Chord Conjecture

• If a tangent and a chord intersect at a point on
  a circle, then the measure of each angle formed
  is one half the measure of its intercepted arc.

m?1 ½m
m?2 ½m

Ex. 1 Finding Angle and Arc Measures

• Line m is tangent to the circle. Find the
  measure of the red angle or arc.
• Solution
• m?1 ½
• m?1 ½ (150)
• m?1 75

150

Ex. 2 Finding Angle and Arc Measures

  measure of the red angle or arc.
• Solution
• m 2(130)
• m 260

• is tangent to the circle. Find m?CBD
• Solution
• m?CBD ½ m
• 5x ½(9x 20)
• 10x 9x 20
• x 20
• m?CBD 5(20) 100

Lines Intersecting Inside or Outside a Circle

• If two lines intersect a circle, there are three
  (3) places where the lines can intersect.

Outside the circle
11
Lines Intersecting

• You know how to find angle and arc measures when
  lines intersect
• ON THE CIRCLE.
• You can use the following theorems to find the
  measures when the lines intersect
• INSIDE or OUTSIDE the circle.

12
Chords intersecting Inside the circle

• If two chords intersect in the interior of a
  circle, then the measure of each angle is one
  half the sum of the measures of the arcs
  intercepted by the angle and its vertical angle.

13
Tangent and Secant Exterior Intersections

• If a tangent and a secant, two tangents or two
  secants intercept in the EXTERIOR of a circle,
  then the measure of the angle formed is one half
  the difference of the measures of the intercepted
  arcs.

14
Tangent and Secant Exterior Intersections

• If a tangent and a secant, two tangents or two
  secants intercept in the EXTERIOR of a circle,
  then the measure of the angle formed is one half
  the difference of the measures of the intercepted
  arcs.

m?2 ½ m( - m )

Tangent and Secant Exterior Intersections

• If a tangent and a secant, two tangents or two
  secants intercept in the EXTERIOR of a circle,
  then the measure of the angle formed is one half
  the difference of the measures of the intercepted
  arcs.
