Finding the missing angles in a circle using different properties of circles
We will use all the basic circle terminology and the circle properties we discussed in the previous posts to solve the problems.
Keep in mind the the following terms about circles:
- Tangent is a line segment which intersect a circle only at one point.
- The radius and the tangent make a right angle at the point of a tangency.
- Any line segment intersecting a circle at two points is known as the chord of the circle.
- The diameter of the circle is its longest chord.
- If the radius of the circle intersect a chord at right angle then the radius bisects the chord.
- If the radius bisects the chord then it is perpendicular to the chord (reverse of the above property)
- Now the perpendicular bisector of the chord of the circle passes though its radius (both the above properties)
- Central angle of a circle is twice the inscribed angle subtended by the same arc which is making the central angle.
- Angle subtended by a semicircle is a right angle.
Trust me I have forgotten all the above before starting to write here on steemit, but wrote all the above from my memory now. If I could do it so can you (even easier for kids as young as in grade 9).
Another good post from Steemit's resident math teacher!

Oh boy...this is where I lost focus in high school. English, shop and sports were my strong suits. I understand that learning new things is good for the brain at any age but I know when I'm beat ~smiles~
So just wanted to stop by and see what your next post was about. I came...I saw...you conquered. All's fair in the love of math ...and I do understand it's importance my friend. I am not mocking...I assure you. You have my respect and admiration.
And with that being said...how many mathematicians does it take to screw in a light bulb? :-)

My most sincere apologies @mathworksheets you have no time for such Tom Foolery.
the answer, well there is no answer but if we set the parameters at two words with a punctuation of your choice...then logic, when there is none...becomes your guess is as good as mine. I was just curious what you might come up with. Again...my apologies...of course. <<<<<< ;-)

You are welcome Sam. Thanks YOU for taking the time to read the post and leaving your feedback even at 2:00 am. Geometry is there all around us in Nature in forms of constellations, patterns, man made equipment and objects are based on it. Isn't it amazing?

Sure thing! I always did enjoy this kind of math. It's like a puzzle or game.
I have been keenly aware of the geometry around me, particularly in nature. It shows up in the patterns I make from the photos I take. It surprises me every time...it is quite amazing, indeed!

Yes Sam, math puzzles are very interesting if you can connect the dots. Great to hear that you like geometry and you look for it in your photography work.

That's what I need to listen. When I hear that someone used my math worksheets and lessons far far away, I got so excited so much that it gives me energy to do 100 more lessons and worksheets. Thanks for your feedback my dear brother @sashin :))

Don't worry brother, use my lessons and worksheets for kids you know. For me where I lacked I want my kids to achieve that! You are a great personality bro. Thanks a lot for the conversations. Please stay in touch my dear.
