Fun with Angles: Easy Worksheets on Chords, Secants, and Tangents!

A comprehensive guide to understanding angles formed by chords, secants and tangents in circles, focusing on interior, exterior, and on-circle intersections with practical examples and formulas.

  • The guide explains three main scenarios of intersections: inside the circle, on the circle, and outside the circle
  • Each scenario presents specific theorems for calculating angle measures using arc measures
  • Contains detailed examples demonstrating the application of angle of intersecting secants theorem and related concepts
  • Includes practice problems with solutions for all types of intersections
  • Covers the relationship between angles and arcs in various geometric configurations

Page 2: On-Circle and Exterior Intersections

This page delves into two crucial scenarios: intersections occurring on the circle and exterior intersections. It presents the theorems for calculating angles when a secant and a tangent intersect in the exterior of a circle and when lines meet at the circle's circumference.

Definition: For exterior intersections, the angle measure equals half the difference of the intercepted arcs.

Highlight: The page presents three distinct cases for exterior intersections: two secants, secant and tangent, and two tangents.

Example: Problem 7 shows that for an angle on the circle, mZDEG = 308°/2 = 154°, demonstrating the application of the on-circle intersection formula.

Vocabulary: Point of tangency - the point where a tangent line touches the circle's circumference.

Page 3: Practice Problems and Applications

The final page provides extensive practice with various angle calculations involving angles formed by chords, tangents, and secants. It presents complex problems that require applying the theorems learned in previous pages.

Example: Problem 13 demonstrates solving for an unknown arc measure: 40° = 2(x-75°), leading to x = 155°.

Highlight: The problems progress in complexity, incorporating all three types of intersections covered in the lesson.

Vocabulary: Arc measure - the degree measurement of a portion of the circle's circumference.

Page 1: Interior Intersections

This page introduces the fundamental concepts of intersecting lines in circles, focusing specifically on interior intersections. The page explains that when two secants intersect inside the circle, the measure of the angle formed equals half the sum of the intercepted arcs.

Definition: When chords, secants, and tangents intersect inside a circle, the angle measure equals half the sum of the intercepted arcs.

Example: In one problem, mLAED = (45° + 109°)/2 = 77°, demonstrating the application of the interior intersection formula.

Highlight: The page features three distinct figures showing different types of intersections: inside the circle (Figure 1), on the circle (Figure 2), and outside the circle (Figure 3).

Vocabulary: Intercepted arcs - the portions of a circle's circumference that are contained between two lines intersecting the circle.
