About This Worksheet

This medium-level worksheet contains 22 problems designed for 10th Grade students practicing arcs & central angles. Medium worksheets introduce larger numbers and varied question formats to deepen understanding and build fluency.

Arc measure is the bridge between angle measurement and the geometry of circles. These relationships appear in every subsequent circle topic — inscribed angles, tangent-chord angles, and arc length calculations — making fluency with arcs and central angles essential for circle geometry.

  • Calculate arc measures using central angle measures
  • Apply the Arc Addition Postulate to find arc measures in complex figures
  • Distinguish congruent arcs and chords and apply their relationships
  • Use the perpendicular bisector of a chord to locate the center of a circle
  • Set up equations from congruent arc or chord conditions to find missing values

How to Solve: Worked Example

Example Problem: Adjacent arcs measure 113° and 22°. Find the combined arc.
Solution Steps:
  1. The Arc Addition Postulate: adjacent arcs add.
  2. 113 + 22.
  3. = 135°.
Answer: 135°
Tip: Arcs add just like segments and angles, provided they share exactly one endpoint.
