Look opposite the vertex

An inscribed angle has its vertex on the circle and measures half its intercepted arc.

Learning objective

What this activity builds

Use the inscribed-angle theorem and triangle or cyclic quadrilateral angle rules.

Worked example

Angle ABC is inscribed in a circle and intercepts arc ADC measuring 126 degrees. Find angle ABC.

63 degrees.

The intercepted arc does not contain vertex B. An inscribed angle measures half that arc: 126 / 2 = 63 degrees.

Teaching notes

Make the practice count

  • The vertex of an inscribed angle lies on the circle.
  • Use the intercepted arc that does not contain the angle vertex.
  • Triangle angles total 180 degrees; opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral also total 180 degrees.
