Chords and Arcs
Geometry 11-2
• Central Angle – An angle where the vertex is
the center of the circle
• Inscribed Angle – An angle where the vertex is
on the arc of the circle and the sides of the angle
are chords of the circle

• Compass
• Protractor

1. Draw a large circle, O
2. Draw two congruent
chords ST and AR, use
your compass to
ensure they are
A
congruent.
3. Construct lines OS, OT,
OA and OR
4. Measure angles AOR
and TOS

If two chords in a circle
are congruent, then they
determine two central
angles that are
congruent

If two central angles in a
circle are congruent,
then they determine two
arcs that are congruent

are congruent, then
their intercepted arcs
are congruent

Chord Arc Theorem
Chord Arc Theorem
1. Draw a large circle
2. Add a chord to the circle
3. Construct a
perpendicular bisector of
the chord – use the
compass and the ruler
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 with
a congruent chord
5. What do you notice about
the two bisector lines?
Chord Exploration
The diameter from the
center of a circle
perpendicular to a chord
is the perpendicular
bisector of the chord
Perpendicular to a Chord Theorem
Compare the distance
from the center of the
circle to each of the
congruent chords
Chord Exploration
Two congruent chords in
a circle are equidistant
from the center of a circle
Chord distance to center Theorem
• Construct a perpendicular bisector of the
chord – use the compass and the ruler
Chord Exploration
• Repeat the process again
Chord Exploration
• What do you notice about the two
bisector lines?
Chord Exploration
• What do you notice about the two
bisector lines?
This is the center
of the circle
So what conclusion
can we draw about the
two bisectors?
They are both diameters
Chord Exploration
The perpendicular
bisector of a chord
passes through the
center of a circle
