Key Topics to Revise
1
Angle Subtended by a Chord at a Point
- The angle subtended by a chord at the center is called the central angle
- Equal chords subtend equal angles at the center
- If angles subtended by chords at center are equal, then chords are equal
2
Perpendicular from Center to Chord
- Perpendicular from center to chord bisects the chord
- Line from center bisecting a chord is perpendicular to the chord
- Distance from center to chord is the perpendicular distance
3
Equal Chords and Distance from Center
- Equal chords are equidistant from center
- Chords equidistant from center are equal
- Distance is measured as perpendicular distance
4
Angle Subtended by Arc - Inscribed Angle Theorem
- Angle at center = 2 × angle at circumference (same arc)
- Angles in same segment are equal
- Angle in semicircle is 90°
