Using Arcs of Circles
• In a plane, an angle whose vertex is the center of a circle is a central angle of the circle. If the measure of a central angle, APB is less than 180°, then A and B and the points of P

Inscribed Angles• The measure of an inscribed angle is half the
measure of its intercepted arc
• A central angle has the same measure as its intercepted arc.
• Two inscribed angles that intercept the same arc are congruent.
• An angle inscribed in a semicircle is a right angle.

Ex. 5: Finding the Center of a Circle
• Theorem 10.6 can be used to locate a circle’s center as shown in the next few slides.
• Step 1: Draw any two chords that are not parallel to each other.

Ex. 6: Using Properties of Chords
• Masonry Hammer. A masonry hammer has a hammer on one end and a curved pick on the other. The pick works best if you swing it along a circular curve that matches the shape of the pick. Find the center of the circular swing.

Ex. 6: Using Properties of Chords
• Draw a segment AB, from the top of the masonry hammer to the end of the pick. Find the midpoint C, and draw perpendicular bisector CD. Find the intersection of CD with the line formed by the handle. So, the center of the swing lies at E.

Ex. 7: Using Theorem 10.7
Because AB and DE are congruent chords, they are equidistant from the center. So CF CG. To find CG, first find DG.
CG DE, so CG bisects DE. Because DE = 8, DG = =4.

Ex. 7: Using Theorem 10.7
Then use DG to find CG. DG = 4 and CD = 5, so ∆CGD is a 3-4-5 right triangle. So CG = 3. Finally, use CG to find CF. Because CF CG, CF = CG = 3
