What is the definition of an angle in a circle?

Back

An angle in a circle is formed by two rays (sides of the angle) that share a common endpoint (the vertex) and are drawn from the center of the circle to the circumference.

What is the definition of a semicircle?

Back

A semicircle is an arc that represents half of a circle, measuring 180 degrees.

Front

How do you calculate the measure of an arc?

Back

The measure of an arc can be calculated using the formula: m(arc) = m(central angle).

What is the relationship between the angles in a cyclic quadrilateral?

Back

In a cyclic quadrilateral, the opposite angles are supplementary, meaning they add up to 180 degrees.

What is the definition of a chord?

Back

A chord is a line segment whose endpoints lie on the circumference of the circle.

What is the relationship between the radius and the angle subtended at the center?

Back

The larger the angle subtended at the center of the circle, the longer the arc it intercepts.
