Example: Find the measure of each arc.
4x + 3x + (3x +10) + 2x + (2x-14) = 360°
B 14x – 4 = 360°
14x = 364°
2x-14 C x = 26°
4x 4x = 4(26) = 104°

E 3x
3x = 3(26) = 78°
3x+10 D
3x +10 = 3(26) +10= 88°

A 2x = 2(26) = 52°
2x – 14 = 2(26) – 14 = 38°

Intercepted Arc
Intercepted Arc: An angle intercepts an arc if and only if each of
the following conditions holds:
1. The endpoints of the arc lie on the angle.
2. All points of the arc, except the endpoints, are in the interior of the
angle.
3. Each side of the angle contains an endpoint of the arc. C
