Topics in Circles and Angles

1

Parts of a Circle and Central Angles

  • A circle can be divided into parts using central angles at the center
  • To mark 1/n of a circle, the central angle = 360°/n
  • An angle made at any point on the circle by the same arc is half the central angle
2

Fundamental Angle-Arc Relationship

  • Angle at circumference = (1/2) × Central angle of the same arc
  • This relationship holds for all arcs with central angle ≤ 180°
  • For arcs with central angle > 180°, the formula still applies but requires careful identification of the arc
3

Angle in a Semicircle

  • Any angle inscribed in a semicircle is always 90°
  • This is a special case of the general angle-arc relationship
  • Central angle of semicircle = 180°, so circumference angle = 180°/2 = 90°
4

Angles in Same Segment and Alternate Segments

  • All angles in the same segment (same side of a chord) are equal
  • Angles in alternate segments add up to 180°
  • A chord divides the circle into two segments
