Central and Inscribed Angles
There are special relationships that exist between angles and the arcs that they intercept. Get ready to explore these special relationships. By the end of this topic, you will be able to solve problems related to central angle and inscribed angles in a circle.
Essential Question
- How can you solve problems involving central angles and inscribed angles?
Warm-Up
Before you begin your study of the central and inscribe angles in a circle, focus your attention on ∆ABC. Do not worry about the circle as you try to answer the first question; instead, use what you already know about triangles. For the second question, use the entire diagram to answer the question.
