‘Always start with angle chasing. When in doubt, add another
pronumeral.’ - Sun Tzu, the art of war
Way 1. Way 2.
So which way is better? Way 2 is. Only do Way 1 if your angle chase is
short. Otherwise, always stick to Way 2.

2 What to angle chase
Fun fact: In angle chasing, we chase angles. Anyways, there are many important
things to look for.
• Similar and congruent triangles
• Icosceles triangles
• Cyclic quadrilaterals (Very important, especially with bowtie, alternate
segment, etc.)
• Circles (Look out for cyclic quadrilaterals!)
• Parallel lines
• Tangents
• Triangle angle sum
• Opposite angles
Remember to also fill in their complementary and supplementary angles (such
as for lines or perpendiculars).
