Prompt
What defines an inscribed angle?
Answer
Its vertex lies on the circle and its sides contain chords.
Prompt
How does an inscribed angle compare with its intercepted arc?
Answer
The angle is half the arc.
Prompt
How do you find an intercepted arc from its inscribed angle?
Answer
Double the angle.
Prompt
How does a central angle compare with its intercepted arc?
Answer
They have equal degree measure.
Prompt
What is true of inscribed angles intercepting the same arc?
Answer
They are congruent.
Prompt
What angle is inscribed in a semicircle?
Answer
A right angle.
Prompt
What is true of opposite angles in a cyclic quadrilateral?
Answer
They are supplementary.
Prompt
What does cyclic quadrilateral mean?
Answer
All four vertices lie on one circle.
Prompt
Where is an intercepted arc relative to the inscribed-angle vertex?
Answer
Between the chord endpoints and not containing the vertex.
Prompt
An intercepted arc is 118°. Find its inscribed angle.
Answer
59°.
Prompt
An inscribed angle is 43°. Find its intercepted arc.
Answer
86°.
Prompt
A cyclic angle is 72°. Find its opposite.
Answer
108°.
Prompt
A triangle side is a diameter. What is the opposite angle?
Answer
90°.
Prompt
Why must vertex location be checked first?
Answer
Central and inscribed angles use different angle–arc multipliers.
Prompt
Do same-arc inscribed angles need adjacent vertices?
Answer
No; only the intercepted endpoints must match.
Prompt
Can an inscribed angle intercept a major arc?
Answer
Yes; then the angle can be obtuse.
Prompt
An inscribed angle is 3x+4 and its arc is 8x. Find x.
Answer
4.
Prompt
Opposite cyclic angles are 5x and 7x. Find x.
Answer
15.
Prompt
A right triangle's hypotenuse is 30. Find its circumradius.
Answer
15.
Prompt
What common reversal error occurs with the theorem?
Answer
Halving an angle when solving for the arc; the angle must be doubled.
