Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

In a circle, if the angle subtended by an arc at the center is 80 degrees, what is the angle subtended at any point on the circumference?
  • Step 1: Understand that there is a circle with a center and a circumference.
  • Step 2: Identify that an angle can be formed at the center of the circle by an arc.
  • Step 3: Note that the angle at the center is given as 80 degrees.
  • Step 4: Learn the rule that the angle subtended at any point on the circumference by the same arc is half of the angle at the center.
  • Step 5: Apply the rule: Take the angle at the center (80 degrees) and divide it by 2.
  • Step 6: Calculate: 80 degrees divided by 2 equals 40 degrees.
  • Step 7: Conclude that the angle subtended at any point on the circumference is 40 degrees.
