Circle
The measure of an
angle formed by a secant
& a tangent intersecting
on the circle is equal to ½
the measure of the
intercepted arc.
mCAB = ½ m AB
Solution :
mCAB = ½ m AB
mCAB = ½ (120o)
mCAB = 60o
3. The Measure of a Secant and a Tangent
Intersecting the exterior of the Circle
The measure of an
angle formed by a secant
& a tangent intersecting at
the exterior of the circle is
½ the absolute value of the
differences of the
measures of the
intercepted arc.
mP = ½ l mADC –
mAB l
Solution :
mP = ½ l m ADC – m AB l
mP = ½ l 150o – 90o l
mP = ½ (60o)
mP = 30o
4. The Measure of the Angle Formed by
Two Tangents Intersecting at the Exterior of
the Circle
The measure of the angle
formed by two tangents
intersecting the exterior of the
circle is equal to ½ the absolute
of the difference of the
measures of the intercepted
arcs.
mP = ½ l m ABC – m AC l
Solution :
mP = ½ l m ABC – m AC l
mP = ½ l 220o – 100o l
mP = ½ (120o)
mP = 60o
