Arcs and Chords
• The chords of adjacent arcs
can form a polygon.
• The polygon in the picture is
an inscribed polygon
because all of the vertices lie
on the circle and the circle is
a circumscribed circle
because it contains all of the
vertices of the polygon.
TESSELLATIONS The rotations of a tessellation can
create twelve congruent central angles. Determine
whether
.
Because all of the twelve central angles are congruent,
the measure of each angle is
Let the center of the circle be A. The measure of

ADVERTISING A logo for an advertising campaign is a
pentagon that has five congruent central angles.
Determine whether

Answer: no
Diameters and Chords
• Diameters that are ┴ to a chord in a
create special segments and arc
relationships.
• Theorem 10.3: In a , if a diameter (or
radius) is ┴ to a chord, then it bisects the
chord and its arc.
