Circle Theorem Worksheet

The document provides definitions and examples for several circle theorems including: 1) Angles standing on the same arc are equal, 2) The angle at the center is twice the angle at the circumference, 3) Opposite angles in a cyclic quadrilateral are supplementary, 4) The exterior angle in a cyclic quadrilateral equals the interior angle opposite it, 5) The angle between a radius and tangent is 90 degrees, 6) Tangents from an external point are equal in length, 7) The angle between a chord and tangent equals the angle in the opposite segment. It also provides two practice problems applying these theorems to find missing angles.
