  1. Introduction Circles have several special properties, conjectures, postulates, and theorems associated with them. This lesson focuses on the relationship between chords and the angles and arcs they create. 3.1.2: Chord Central Angles Conjecture

  2. Key Concepts Chords are segments whose endpoints lie on the circumference of a circle. Three chords are shown on the circle to the right. 3.1.2: Chord Central Angles Conjecture

  3. Key Concepts, continued Congruent chords of a circle create one pair of congruent central angles. 3.1.2: Chord Central Angles Conjecture

  4. Key Concepts, continued When the sides of the central angles create diameters of the circle, vertical angles are formed. This creates two pairs of congruent central angles. 3.1.2: Chord Central Angles Conjecture

  5. Key Concepts, continued Congruent chords also intercept congruent arcs. An intercepted arc is an arc whose endpoints intersect the sides of an inscribed angle and whose other points are in the interior of the angle. Remember that the measure of an arc is the same as the measure of its central angle. Also, recall that central angles are twice the measure of their inscribed angles. Central angles of two different triangles are congruent if their chords and circles are congruent. 3.1.2: Chord Central Angles Conjecture

  6. Key Concepts, continued In the circle below, chords and are congruent chords of 3.1.2: Chord Central Angles Conjecture

  7. Key Concepts, continued When the radii are constructed such that each endpoint of the chord connects to the center of the circle, four central angles are created, as well as two congruent isosceles triangles by the SSS Congruence Postulate. 3.1.2: Chord Central Angles Conjecture

  8. Key Concepts, continued Since the triangles are congruent and both triangles include two central angles that are the vertex angles of the isosceles triangles, those central angles are also congruent because Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent (CPCTC). 3.1.2: Chord Central Angles Conjecture

  9. Key Concepts, continued The measure of the arcs intercepted by the chords is congruent to the measure of the central angle because arc measures are determined by their central angle. 3.1.2: Chord Central Angles Conjecture

  10. Common Errors/Misconceptions mistakenly believing that central angles of different circles will be congruent if their chords are congruent 3.1.2: Chord Central Angles Conjecture

  11. Guided Practice Example 1 3.1.2: Chord Central Angles Conjecture

  12. Guided Practice: Example 1, continued Find the measure of The measure of ∠BAC is equal to the measure of because central angles are congruent to their intercepted arc; therefore, the measure of is also 57°. 3.1.2: Chord Central Angles Conjecture

  13. Guided Practice: Example 1, continued Find the measure of Subtract the measure of from 360°. 3.1.2: Chord Central Angles Conjecture

  14. Guided Practice: Example 1, continued State your conclusion. ✔ 3.1.2: Chord Central Angles Conjecture

  15. Guided Practice: Example 1, continued 3.1.2: Chord Central Angles Conjecture

  16. Guided Practice Example 2 What conclusions can you make? 3.1.2: Chord Central Angles Conjecture

  17. Guided Practice: Example 2, continued What type of angles are ∠G and ∠E, and what does that tell you about the chords? ∠G and ∠E are congruent central angles of congruent circles, so and are congruent chords. 3.1.2: Chord Central Angles Conjecture

  18. Guided Practice: Example 2, continued Since the central angles are congruent, what else do you know? The measures of the arcs intercepted by congruent chords are congruent, so minor arc HI is congruent to minor arc JK. Deductively, then, major arc IH is congruent to major arc KJ. ✔ 3.1.2: Chord Central Angles Conjecture
