Math Problem Statement
Find the indicated Angle or Arc measure. HINT: You can “DRAW” your “OWN CENTRAL ANGLES” from the Center if you need to. The Measure of an ARC is the same as the MEASURE of its CORRESPONDING Central Angle!
Solution
To solve these problems, let's analyze each question systematically:
Question 5: The arc is subtended by angle of . The measure of arc , the angle subtended by the central angle at the center, is .
Since (a full circle):
Question 6: The given inscribed angle is . An inscribed angle subtends an arc twice its measure. Hence:
Question 7: The given angle is , which is an inscribed angle. Its subtended arc will be:
Question 8: The triangle within the circle is inscribed, so the angles , , and sum to . Given and , we can calculate :
Now, the arc subtended by will be:
