Exploring Chords and Congruent Arcs in Circles

The video tutorial covers the properties of chords, diameters, and arcs in circles. It explains how chords divide circles into arcs and how diameters create semicircles. Theorem 10.3 is introduced, stating that in the same or congruent circles, minor arcs are congruent if their corresponding chords are congruent, and vice versa. The video includes examples demonstrating these concepts, showing how to determine arc measures when given certain conditions.

What does a diameter of a circle divide it into?

• Two minor arcs

• Two major arcs

• Two semi-circles

• Four quarters

If two chords in congruent circles are congruent, what can be said about their corresponding arcs?

• They are unequal

• They are perpendicular

• They are congruent

• They are parallel

In a circle, if arc AB is congruent to arc CD, what does this imply about chords AB and CD?

• They are not related

• They are parallel

• They are congruent

• They are perpendicular

What is the relationship between congruent chords and arcs in congruent circles?

• No specific relationship

• Chords are longer than arcs

• Congruent arcs have non-congruent chords

• Congruent chords have congruent arcs

What is the measure of arc CD if arc BC is 110 degrees and they are congruent?

• 110 degrees

• 220 degrees

• 100 degrees

• 90 degrees

What total angle is formed by two congruent arcs in a circle?

• 360 degrees

• 270 degrees

• 180 degrees

• 90 degrees

If chord BC is congruent to chord CD, what can be inferred about arcs BC and CD?

• They are complementary

• They are supplementary

• They are congruent

• They are not related

How do you calculate the measure of an arc if you know the measure of a congruent arc?

• Multiply by two

• Divide by two

• It is the same

• Subtract from 360 degrees

If the measure of arc BD is 150 degrees, what is the measure of arc BC?

• 75 degrees

• 210 degrees

• 150 degrees

• 105 degrees

What is the measure of arc BC if the total degrees in the circle are 360 and arc BD is 150 degrees?

• 205 degrees

• 150 degrees

• 255 degrees

• 105 degrees
