Inscribed Angle Theorem and Properties
2013-11-05 12:46
This applet demonstrates the Inscribed Angle Theorem. By constructing a circle, its center, points on the circumference, and corresponding segments and angles, it visually illustrates the relationship between an inscribed angle and a central angle subtended by the same arc. It also shows that inscribed angles subtended by the same arc are equal. Ideal for exploring plane geometry.
