Practice Questions

Answer all questions. Show your working in the grid spaces provided.
1.
In a circle, two angles subtend the same arc. If one angle measures 65°, calculate the measure of the other angle.
[2 marks]
2.
Construct a circle with two angles on the circumference measuring 40° and 70°, both subtending the same arc. Verify if they are subtended by the same arc.
[3 marks]
3.
A circle has an inscribed triangle with angles 50°, 60°, and x°. If the angles at the circumference subtend the same arc, find x.
[3 marks]
4.
Two angles are inscribed in a circle and both measure 55°. Are these angles subtended by the same arc? Explain your reasoning.
[3 marks]
5.
In a circle, an angle of 80° is formed at the circumference. Find the measure of the angle at the center subtended by the same arc.
[2 marks]
6.
Identify the common mistake in the following reasoning: 'Angles subtended by different arcs are equal.' Provide the correct statement.
[2 marks]
7.
A chord subtends a 60° angle at the circumference. What is the measure of the angle subtended by the same chord at the opposite side of the circle?
[3 marks]
8.
A circle has two points A and B on its circumference. An angle at point C on the circle subtends the same arc AB as angle at point D. If angle at C measures 45°, find the measure of angle at D.
[3 marks]
9.
Explain why an angle measured at the center of a circle is twice any inscribed angle subtending the same arc.
[3 marks]
10.
A certain inscribed angle in a circle measures 35°. Construct the corresponding central angle and explain the relationship.
[3 marks]
11.
Challenge: In a circle, two angles at the circumference measure 50° and 70°, both subtending the same arc. Is this possible? Justify your answer.
