Lesson 4: Theorems Related to Chords, Arcs,

Central Angles, and Inscribed Angles

MOST ESSENTIAL LEARNING COMPETENCY

M10GE-IIc-1: The learner proves theorems related to chords, arcs, central

angles, and inscribed angles.
In this set of activities, you should prove theorems related to chords, arcs, central
angles and inscribed angles.

WHAT YOU NEED TO REMEMBER?

Hello Math-linian! Are you excited to continue our lesson about the different
theorems related to chords, arcs, central angles and inscribed angles? For this session, we
will prove the different theorems related to the circle!
Let’s begin!

A. In a circle or in congruent circles, two minor arcs are congruent if and only if
their corresponding central angles are congruent.

If ⊙ B ≅ ⊙ T, ∠ FBI ≅ ∠ PTA , then prove that FI ≅ PA.

STATEMENTS REASONS

1. ⊙B ≅ ⊙T, ∠ FBI ≅ ∠ PTA 1. Given

2. In ⊙B, m∠ FBI ≅ FI 2. The degree measure of the minor arc is equal to the
degree measure of its central angle.
In ⊙T, m∠ PTA ≅ PA

3. ∠ FBI ≅ ∠ PTA 3. From #1, definition of congruent angles.

4. m FI ≅ m PA 4. From #2 and #3, by substitution

5. FI ≅ PA 5. From 4, definition of congruent arcs.

Part 2: Proof

STATEMENTS REASONS

1. ⊙B ≅ ⊙T, FI ≅ PA 1. Given

2. In ⊙B, FI ≅ m∠ FBI 2. The degree measure of the minor arc is equal to the
degree measure of its central angle.
m ≅ m∠ PTA
In ⊙T, PA

3. m FIm≅ m PA.
m 3. From #1, definition of congruent arcs.

4. m∠ FBI ≅ m∠ PTA 4. From #2 and #3, by substitution

5. ∠ FBI ≅ ∠ PTA 5. From 4, definition of congruent angles.

B. In a circle or in congruent circles, two minor arcs are congruent if and only if their corresponding chords are

 congruent.

In ⊙T, AB ≅ HC since the chords are congruent. It follows that ABm≅ ES. m

In ⊙N ≅ ⊙T, and AB ≅ ES ≅ OE then ABm

≅ ES ≅mOE. m

C. In a circle, a diameter bisects a chord and an arc with the same endpoints if and only if it is perpendicular to
the chord.

In ⊙A, EF is a diameter and BC is a chord.

If EF ⊥ AC, then BD ≅ CD and BE m

m ≅ CE.

Theorems on Inscribed Angles

Theorem Diagram Example

Theorem 1. The measure of the

inscribed angle is equal to one-half
of its intercepted arc (or the
measure of the intercepted arc is
twice the measure of the inscribed
angle).

Theorem 2. If two inscribed angles of a

circle intercept the same arc, then
the angles are congruent. Find the measure of ∠NIE.
∠ NIE ≅ ∠ NVE
(10 x−4 )° =(7 x +2) °
3 x °=6
x ° =2
∠NIE = 10 ( 2 )−4 °
= (20 -4)°
= 16°

Theorem 3. If an inscribed angle
intercepts a diameter of semicircle,
then the angle is a right angle. Find the value of x.
Solutions:
m∠ HIT = 90°
6 x ° = 90°
x = 15°

1. Quadrilateral LPMO is inscribed

in ⊙ N , then
∠ M OL + ∠ LPM = 180° and
∠ PMO + ∠ OLP = 180°

Theorem 4. If a quadrilateral is Find the value of ∠ NTF .

inscribed in a circle, then its ∠ FON + ∠ NTF =180°
opposite angles are supplementary.
(5 y )° + (3 y +12)° =180°

(8 y )° =168°
y =21°
Thus,
∠ NTF = (5 ( 21 )) °
= 105°
