Proving Theorems on Inscribed
3 Angle and its Intercepted Arc

Start lesson 3 of this module by assessing your previously gained knowledge

and skills that would facilitate your understanding on the relationships of inscribed
angles and its intercepted arcs. To answer the question on the importance of the
relationships among arcs and inscribed angles try to perform each activity in the
succeeding sections.

What’s New

Theorems on Inscribed Angles

equal to one-half the measure of its intercepted arc.

Example1: in the figure is an B

inscribed angle with as its intercepted
arc.

If , then =
C
Note: The measure of the intercepted arc
is twice the measure of the inscribed
angle.

Example 2: Solve for x if and =

(4x + 2)°

Theorem 2:
If two inscribed angles of a circle (or congruent circles) intercept congruent
arcs or the same arc, then the angles are congruent.

 Lesson Proving Theorems on Angle
Inscribed in a Semi-circle and
4 Quadrilateral Inscribed is a
Circle

Start lesson 4 of this module by assessing what you gained on the different
mathematical concepts you have previously studied. The knowledge and skills you
acquired will help you understand the different geometric relationships involving
angles inscribed in a semicircle and quadrilateral inscribed in a circle.

What’s New

➢ If an inscribed angle of a circle intercepts a semicircle, then the angle is right

angle

Example:

In the figure on the right,

B
intercept . If is a semicircle,
then, is a right angle.
A C
O

➢ If a quadrilateral is inscribed in a circle, then its opposite angles are

supplementary.

Example:
V
Quadrilateral OVAL is inscribed in

. O
Y
A
L

Activity 2: The Big Event!

Direction: Use a long bond paper; draw a stage design for a wedding reception. In
your design focus on circular objects that illustrate the use of arcs, chords, and
inscribed angles of a circle. Give a brief explanation on how you applied your
knowledge of arcs, chords, and inscribed angles of a circle in making the design. Use
the rubric to rate your work.
