Circle Theorems

The document outlines key geometric theorems and properties related to angles in circles and triangles. It includes the angle at the center theorem, properties of angles subtended by arcs, and relationships in cyclic quadrilaterals. Additionally, it covers specific cases such as angles in triangles, isosceles triangles, and angles formed by tangents and radii.

1.

Angle at the centre theorem: the


central angle is twice the size of the
angle subtended at the arc.
2. Angles subtended by the same arc:
these two angles are equal.
3. Right angle in a half circle: If a
diameter forms part of a triangle,
then the angle at the arc is always
90 o.
4. Sum of the angles in a triangle add
up to 180o
5. Look out for isosceles!: both legs
are equal; both base angles are
equal.
6. Angles on a straight line add up to
180o
7. Cyclic quadrilateral: opposite angles
in the quadrilateral are
supplemental (they add up to 180o)
8. Vertically opposite angles are equal.
9. All angles in any quadrilateral add
up to 360o
10.When a tangent meets a radius, the
angle formed is 90o
11. Alternate segment theorem: when
a tangent reaches a chord, that
angle formed is equal to the angle
in the other segment of the circle.
