Lesson 9.7: Angles of Chords, Secants and Tangents Objectives: Find the measures of angles formed by chords, secants and tangents Standards: MATH.CA.8-12.GEOM.1.0, MATH.CA.8-12.GEOM.2.0, MATH.CA.8-12.GEOM.7.0, MATH.CA.8-12.GEOM.21.0 MATH.NCTM.9-12.GEOM.1.1, MATH.NCTM.9-12.GEOM.1.3 09.7.1 Theorem 9-11 F D 9-11 A Measure of Tangent-Chord Angle The measure of an angle formed by a chord and a tangent that intersect on the circle equals half the measure of the intercepted arc. In other words: E B C 1 m FAB mADB and 2 1 m EAB m ACB 2 F D Proof: A Draw the radii of the circle to points A and B. E Triangle AOB is isosceles, therefore O B 1 1 BAO ABO (180 AOB) 90 AOB 2 2 C We also know that, BAO FAB 90 because FE is tangent to the circle. We obtain, 90 1 1 AOB FAB 90 FAB AOB 2 2 1 m ADB . 2 Since AOB is a central angle that corresponds to arc ADB therefore, m FAB This completes the proof. Example 1: Find the values of a, b and c. First we find angle a: 50 45 a 180 a 85 Using Theorem 9-11 we conclude that: o m AB =2(50 ) = 100 and a 45o o m AC =2(45o) = 90o Therefore, A 50o 1 b 90 45 2 1 c 100 50 2 B b c C 09.7.2 Theorem 9-12 9-12 A B Angles Inside a Circle a D The measure of the angle formed by two chords that intersect inside a circle is equal to half the sum of the measure of the intercepted arcs.

In other words: a yo 1 ( y x) 2 o This theorem also applies for an angle formed by two tangents to the circle drawn from a point outside the circle and for an angle formed by a tangent and a secant drawn from a point outside the circle. a a x o xo yo yo Proof: Draw a line to connect points A and B. 1 DBA x 2 1 BAC y 2 BAC DBA a 1 1 y x a 2 2 a Inscribed angle D a xo B A Inscribed angle yo Alternate angle theorem C Substitution 1 ( y x) 2 This completes the proof.

Four points on a circle divide it into four arcs, whose sizes are 44 degrees, 100 degrees, 106 degrees, and 110 degrees, in consecutive order. The four points determine two intersecting chords. Find the sizes of the angles formed by the intersecting chords.
