More simply, the angle at the centre is double the angle at the circumference. Angle OGK (\(x\)) = angle OKG because triangle GOK is also isosceles. Lengths OK and OG are also both radii. Angle ...

Show step. The angle at the centre is twice the angle at the circumference and so as we know the angle at the circumference BCD BC D, we need to multiply this number by 2 2 to get the angle BAD at the centre: \begin {aligned} &BAD=156^o \div 2 \\\\ &BAD=78^o \end {aligned} B AD = 156o ÷ 2 B AD = 78o.
- Isosceles Triangle. Two Radii and a chord make an isosceles triangle.
- Perpendicular Chord Bisection. The perpendicular from the centre of a circle to a chord will always bisect the chord (split it into two equal lengths).
- Angles Subtended on the Same Arc. Angles formed from two points on the circumference are equal to other angles, in the same arc, formed from those two points.
- Angle in a Semi-Circle. Angles formed by drawing lines from the ends of the diameter of a circle to its circumference form a right angle. So c is a right angle.

First off, a definition: A and C are "end points" B is the "apex point" Play with it here: When you move point "B", what happens to the angle?
Keeping the end points fixed ... ... the angle a° is always the same, no matter where it is on the same arcbetween end points: (Called the Angles Subtended by Same Arc Theorem) And an inscribed angle a° is half of the central angle 2a° (Called the Angle at the Center Theorem) Try it here (not always exact due to rounding):
An angle inscribedacross a circle's diameter is always a right angle: (The end points are either end of a circle's diameter, the apex point can be anywhere on the circumference.) Play with it here:
A tangent linejust touches a circle at one point. It always forms a right angle with the circle's radius.
Example 5: chord of a circle (cosine ratio) Below is a circle with centre C. Points A, B, C, and D are on the circumference of the circle. The chord AB is perpendicular to the line CD at the point E. The line AE is 5cm 5cm and angle ADE =71o = 71o. Calculate the length of the line BC correct to 1 1 decimal place.
The angle between a tangent and a radius is 90°. 30 + x = 90° x = 60°. Using theorem 2. The angle at the circumference in a semicircle is a right angle. y = 90°. Using theorem 6. The angle ...
