Mod 19 Review - Definitions

Match the following terms to their definitions.

• An angle whose vertex lies on a circle and whose sides contain chords of the circle.

• Inscribed Angle

• A segment whose endpoints lie on a circle.

• Central Angle

• A continuous portion of a circle consisting of 2 points & all the points on the circle between them.

• Chord

• An angle less than or equal to 180⁰ whose vertex lies at the center of a circle.

• Arc

• An angle greater than 180° whose vertex lies at the center of a circle.

• Corresponding Central Angle

Match the following terms to their definitions.

• An arc whose endpoints lie on the sides of an inscribed angle & all the points between them.

• Minor Arc

• An arc whose points are on or in the exterior of a central angle.

• Major Arc

• An arc whose endpoints are the endpoints of a diameter.

• Intercepted Arc

• An arc whose points are on or in the interior of a central angle.

• Semicircle

Match the following

• The measure of an arc formed by two adjacent arcs is the sum of the measure of the two arcs.

• Vertical Angles Theorem

• Angles that are opposite each other and formed by two intersecting straight lines, are congruent.

• Inscribed Angle of a Diameter Theorem

• The endpoints of a diameter lie on an inscribed angle if & only if they inscribed angle is 90⁰

• Arc Additional Postulate

• The measure of an inscribed angle is equal to half the measure of its intercepted arc.

• Inscribed Angle Theorem

• If a quadrilateral is inscribed in a circle, then its opposite angles add up to 180⁰

• Inscribed Quadrilateral Theorem
