IV. Procedure
Teacher’s Activity Student’s Activity

A. Preliminary Activities
a. Prayer
b. Greetings
c. Checking of Attendance

B. Energizer/Review

Identify the following parts of a circle.

a.) A straight line segment which passes through 1. DIAMETER

the centre of the circle.

b.) A straight line segment which joins the centre to 2.RADIUS

any point on the circle.

c.) A straight line segment which does not pass 3.CHORD

through the centre of the circle

d.) A portion of a circle which is defined by two 4.SECTOR

radii and arc

e.) A portion of the circumference of a circle. 5. ARC

C. Motivation (Show pictures)

Let the students figure circle things as much

as they can.

 Compass

 Billiard Ball

 Pizza

Look around you. Give me representations of Clock, Fan , Door knob …

circles which you can find here inside your
classroom.

D. Development of the lesson :

In the given figure, look for the exact arc that

represents each description.

ARC MEASURE
The degree measure of this arc is 180.
The degree measure of this arc is greater
than 180 and equal to 360 minus the
measure of the minor arc with the same
endpoints.
The degree measure of this arc is less
than 180 and equal to the measure of its
related central.
ARC MEASURE
Semicircle The degree measure of this arc is
180.
Major arc The degree measure of this arc is
greater than 180 and equal to 360
minus the measure of the minor arc
with the same endpoints.
Minor arc The degree measure of this arc is
less than 180 and equal to the
measure of its related central.
 Read as "the measure of arc AB is 60
degrees".

E. Presentation of the Lesson

PM is a diameter of R. Identify each arc as a

MQ is a minor arc
major arc, minor arc , or semi- circle. Then find its
MQ = 180 – mPQ
measure.
= 180 – 115
= 65
a.) m PN
PN is a minor arc
MNQ is a major arc
PN = PS + PN
MNQ = 360 – 65
= 40+50
= 295
= 75

b.) mMQ

c.) mMNQ

F. Application ( Group Activity)

Each group will be given an envelope containing

worksheets. Choose a representative who will
present your work. You only have 10 minutes to
finish the task.

circle and major arc.
 Most of the teenagers nowadays are into
The degree measure of minor arc is equal to its
sports, elaborate the meaning of “BALL IS
corresponding central angle.
LIFE”.
 Find the Arc measure of a Circle The degree measure of semi-circle is 180.
G. Generalization The degree measure of major arc is equal to 360
minus the degree measure of minor arc.
