Study Notes

Angles and Measurements

  • Angle measures: m∠1 = 50°, m∠2 = 130°.
  • Angle ABC measures 42.5°.
  • The measure of arc AED calculated based on the given information is 194°.
  • Angle AOC measures 66°.
  • The measure of arc QSR is 250°.

Formulas and Theorems

  • To find the measure of an angle formed by two secants, use the formula: 1/2 (a - b) where a and b are the measures of the intercepted arcs.
  • Inscribed angles: m∠JHI = b, m∠GJH = a based on the inscribed angle theorem.
  • Proving angle relationships involves substitutive properties leading to m∠JGI = b - a.

Tangents and Circle Properties

  • When two tangents intersect outside a circle, the angle formed is half the difference of the intercepted arcs.
  • If tangents intersect at endpoints of the same diameter, they cannot intersect outside the circle; the resulting angle would be 0° since both intercepted arcs measure 180°.

Additional Values

  • Value of x in a given context is determined to be 58.
  • The satellite viewing the Earth at an angle of 20° has an arc measure, x, of 160°.
