    CIRCLE THEOREM

    hint:
    - Discuss circle properties such as Radius, Diameter, Circumference, Sector, Chords, Segment,
    and Tangent properties. Then move on to angles in a circle.
    Theorems of angles in a Circle.

    1. Angle at the centre theorem:


    - Angle subtended by an arc at the centre is twice the angle subtended at the circumference.

    2. Angle in the same segment:


    - Angles subtended by the same segment of a circle are equal.

    3. Angle in a semi-circle:
    - Angle in a semi-circle¿ 90 ° .

    4. Angles associated with a cyclic-quadrilateral:

    - The opposite angles of a cyclic-quadrilateralare supplementary.


    - The exterior angle of a cyclic-quadrilateral is equal to the opposite interior angle.
    5. Alternate Segment theorem:
    - The angle between a chord and a tangent at the point of contact is equal to any angle in
    the Alternate Segment.

    Example
    In the diagram, A, B, C, D and E lie on the circumference of a circle.

    DE is parallel to CB. Angle ACE = 48°, angle CED = 65° and angle CBE = 73°.
    Calculate;
    a) angleABE b) angleACB ,
    c) angleBEC , d) angleCDE

    1) DE ⃦ CB Given
    EXPECTED ANSWERS:

    ¿ ACE=48 ° Given
    ¿ CED=65 ° Given
    ¿ CBE=73 ° Given

    (a) ¿ ABE=¿ ACE =48 ° (angles in the same segment)


    ∴<ABE=48°

    (b) ¿ ACB=¿ BCE−¿ ACE


    Hint : But < BCE=¿ DCE=65 °
    (alternate angles are equal)
    ∴< ACB=65 °−48°
    ∴< ACB=17 °

    (c) ¿ BEC +¿ BCE +¿ CBE=108 ° ( ∑ of angles∈ a triangle)


    ∴< BEC=180 °−(¿ BCE+¿ CBE )
    ¿ 180 °−¿
    ¿ 180 °−138 °
    ∴< BEC=42°

    (d)¿ CDE+ ¿CBE=180° (opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral)


    ∴<CDE=180 °−¿ )
    ¿ CDE=180 °−73 °
    ∴<CDE=107 °

    ACTIVITY 2
    In the diagram below, ABC is a tangent to the circle BDEF at B, angle DFB= 40° ,
    angle EBF=15°
    and angle DBE= 45° .

    Find (a) angle DEB,


    (b) angle DEF,
    (c) angle ABF.
    EXPECTED ANSWERS:
    (a) angle DEB= angle DFB= 40° (angles in the same segment)
    (b) angle DEF+angle DBF=180°
    ∴ angle≝+ 60°=¿180° (opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral)
    ∴ angle≝¿180°−60 °
    ∴ angle≝¿120 °

    (c) angle ABF= angle BDF (alternate segment theory)


    =180°−(45 ° +15 °+40 ° )
    ∴ angle ABF =80 ° .

    ACTIVITY 3
    In the diagram below, A,B,C and D lie on the circumference of the circle, center o.
    BO is parallel to CD, angle BAD=62°∧BCE is a straight line .

    Calculate:
    (a) angle t,
    (b) angle BCD,
    (c) angle OBC,
    (d) angle DCE.
    EXPECTED ANSWERS:
    (a) angle t= 2× angleBAD (angle at the centre = 2×angle on the
    ∴angle t= 2×62 ° circumference)
    ∴angle t=124° .

    (b) angle BCD + angle BAD= 180° (opp. angles of a cyclic quad.)
    ∴angle BCD =180°−62 °
    ∴angle BCD = 118° .

    (c ) angle OBC= 180°−118 ° (angles associated with parallel lines)


    ∴angle OBC= 62 °
    (d) angle DCE=angleBAD=62 ° (exterior angle of cyclic quad=
    opposite interior angle)
