Exploration (AS) : Lesson Title: Angles Formed by Secants and Tangents Learning Competencies

This document provides a lesson on angles formed by secants and tangents of a circle. It contains definitions of secants and tangents, theorems on angles formed between secants and tangents, example problems, and practice problems for students. The lesson covers finding measures of angles based on the arcs they intercept for different configurations of secants and tangents intersecting inside or outside the circle. References for further reading are also included.

INVESTIGATE ME!
In the figure below, 𝑪 is the center of the circle. Use the figure to answer the
questions that follow:

Questions:
1. Which lines intersect circle C at two points? How about the lines that intersect the
circle at exactly one point?

2. What are the angles having A as the vertex? C as the vertex? D as the vertex? G
as the vertex? Make a list of these angles, then describe each.

TANGENT AND SECANT

Definition
Segments and rays that are contained in the tangent or intersect the circle in one and only one point
are also said to be tangent to the circle.

Definition
A secant is a line that intersects a circle at exactly two points. A secant contains a chord of a circle.

Theorems on Angles Formed by Tangent and Secant
1. If two secants intersect in the exterior of a circle, then the measure of the angle formed is
one-half the positive difference of the measures of the intercepted arcs.

In the figure below, 𝑁𝑋 ⃡ are two secants intersecting outside the circle at 𝑝𝑜𝑖𝑛𝑡 𝑃. 𝑋𝑌
̂
and 𝑀𝑁̂ are the two intercepted arcs of ∠𝑋𝑃𝑌.

2. If a secant and a tangent intersect in the exterior of a circle, then the measure of the angle
