Opening Exercise
Question 1.
Shown below are circles with two intersecting secant chords.
Measure a, b, and c in the two diagrams. Make a conjecture about the relationship between them.
Answer:
CONJECTURE about the relationship between a, b, and c:
Answer:
a = \(\frac{b + c}{2}\). The measure a is the average of b and c.
Question 2.
We will prove the following.
SECANT ANGLE THEOREM—INTERIOR CASE: The measure of an angle whose vertex lies in the interior of a circle is equal to half the sum of the angle measures of the arcs intercepted by it and its vertical angle.
We can interpret this statement in terms of the diagram below. Let b and c be the angle measures of the arcs intercepted by ∠SAQ and ∠PAR. Then measure a is the average of b and c; that is, a = latex]\frac{b + c}{2}[/latex].
a. Find as many pairs of congruent angles as you can in the diagram below. Express the measures of the angles in terms of b and c whenever possible.
Answer:
m∠PQR = m∠PSR = \(\frac{1}{2}\) c
m∠QPS = m∠QRS = \(\frac{1}{2}\) b
b. Which triangles in the diagram are similar? Explain how you know.
Answer:
△PSA∼ △RQA. All angles in each pair have the same measure.
c. See if you can use one of the triangles to prove the secant angle theorem, interior case. (Hint: Use the exterior angle theorem.)
Answer:
By the exterior angle theorem, a = m∠PQR + m∠QRS. We can conclude a = \(\frac{1}{2}\)(b + c).

Question 6.
The radius of circle A is 4. \(\overline{D C}\) and \(\overline{C E}\) are tangent to the circle with DC = 12. Find \(m \widehat{D E}\) and the area of quadrilateral DAEC rounded to the nearest hundredth.
Answer:
m∠C = 2(tan – 1\(\frac{4}{12}\)) ≈ 36.87°
Let \(m \widehat{D E}\) be x.
\(\frac{\left(360^{\circ} – x\right) – x}{2}\) = 36.87°
x = 143.13°
Therefore, \(m \widehat{D E}\) = 143.13°, and the area is 48 square units .

Question 1.
Find x. Explain your answer.
Answer:
x = 40. Major arc \(m \widehat{B D}\) = 360 – 140 = 220.
Question 2.
Use the diagram to show that \(m \widehat{D E}\) = y° + x° and \(m \widehat{F G}\) = y° – x°. Justify your work.
Answer:
x = \(\frac{1}{2}\) \(m \widehat{D E}\) – \(m \widehat{F G}\), or 2x = \(m \widehat{D E}\) – \(m \widehat{F G}\). Angle whose vertex lies exterior of circle is equal to half the difference of the angle measures of its larger and smaller intercepted arcs.
y = \(\frac{1}{2}\) \(m \widehat{D E}\) + \(m \widehat{F G}\), or 2y = \(m \widehat{D E}\) + \(m \widehat{F G}\). Angle whose vertex lies in a circle is equal to half the sum of the arcs intercepted by the angle and its vertical angle.
Adding the two equations gives 2x + 2y = 2m, or
x + y = \(m \widehat{D E}\).
Subtracting the two equations gives 2y – 2x = 2\(m \widehat{F G}\), or
y – x = \(m \widehat{F G}\).
