About This Worksheet

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

The Inscribed Angle Theorem is one of the most elegant and useful results in circle geometry. It connects angles and arcs in a precise way that enables problem solving throughout circle geometry and appears in higher mathematics including the geometry of complex numbers and the unit circle in trigonometry.

  • Apply the Inscribed Angle Theorem (inscribed angle = half the intercepted arc)
  • Use corollaries to find angles inscribed in semicircles or in the same arc
  • Apply the properties of inscribed polygons, especially cyclic quadrilaterals
  • Calculate angles formed by two chords intersecting inside a circle
  • Solve for missing arc or angle measures in multi-step circle diagram problems

How to Solve: Worked Example

Example Problem: An inscribed angle measures 65°. Find its intercepted arc.
Solution Steps:
  1. Reverse the theorem: the arc is twice the inscribed angle.
  2. 65 × 2.
  3. = 130°.
Answer: 130°
Tip: Going from angle to arc, double. From arc to angle, halve.
