    Theorem 4.

    1 : To simplify, Central angles are congruent if the measurements of their intercepts


    are congruent. Conversely, the measurement of two arcs are congruent if the subtended central
    angles are congruent.

    For Example:
    We have circle A that has a central angle CAB and DAE. It is given that ∠CAB is congruent
    to ∠DAE. Since these two central angles are congruent, it follows that their
    intercepted arc are congruent. Thus, arc CB is congruent to arc DE.

    Theorem 4.7: An inscribed angle is an angle formed by two lines that go from the edge of the
    circle to intersect at some point on the circle. This theorem tells us that the measure of this
    inscribed angle is exactly half of the angle at the center of this circle that would "open up" to that
    same arc. So, if you know the arc's angle at the center, the inscribed angle will be half of that.

    Mathematically, we can write is us:


    1
    Inscribed angle = measurement of intercepted arc
    2

    For example:
    We have an inscribed angle CAB. Its intercepted arc is arc AB the measure of which is 50
    degrees.

    By applying the theorem, we can get the measurement of the inscribed angle using the
    measurement of its intercepted arc AB.

    So we have:

    1
    Inscribed angle = measurement of intercepted arc
    2
    1
    Inscribed angle = (50)
    2
    Inscribed angle = 25

    Therefore, the measurement of the inscribed angle CAB is 25 degrees.
