-
What is an angle whose vertex is on a circle and whose sides contain chords of the circle?
- Answer: B. Inscribed angle
- Explanation: An inscribed angle is formed when the vertex lies on the circle, and its sides are chords of the circle.
-
An arc of a circle measures 30°. If the radius of the circle is 1.5 cm, what is the length of the arc?
- Answer: B. 2.3 cm
- Explanation: The formula for the arc length is . Substituting, .
-
Using the figure below, which of the following is an external secant segment of ?
- Answer: C.
- Explanation: An external secant segment is the part of the secant line that lies outside the circle.
-
The opposite angles of a quadrilateral inscribed in a circle are _____.
- Answer: D. Supplementary
