Circle theorems & cyclic quadrilaterals

Answers and reasoning. Review before teaching.

  1. 1. ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral inscribed in a circle. If interior angle ∠ABC = 122°, find the opposite interior angle ∠ADC.

    58°

    Opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral sum to 180°: 180° − 122° = 58°.

  2. 2. ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral inscribed in a circle. If interior angle ∠ABC = 69°, find the opposite interior angle ∠ADC.

    111°

    Opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral sum to 180°: 180° − 69° = 111°.

  3. 3. Points A, B, and C lie on a circle with centre O. If the angle at the circumference ∠ACB = 64°, find the angle at the centre ∠AOB.

    128°

    By the circle theorem, the angle at the centre is twice the angle at the circumference subtended by the same arc: 2 × 64° = 128°.

  4. 4. ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral inscribed in a circle. If interior angle ∠ABC = 92°, find the opposite interior angle ∠ADC.

    88°

    Opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral sum to 180°: 180° − 92° = 88°.

  5. 5. ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral inscribed in a circle. If interior angle ∠ABC = 87°, find the opposite interior angle ∠ADC.

    93°

    Opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral sum to 180°: 180° − 87° = 93°.

  6. 6. ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral inscribed in a circle. If interior angle ∠ABC = 96°, find the opposite interior angle ∠ADC.

    84°

    Opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral sum to 180°: 180° − 96° = 84°.

  7. 7. Points A, B, and C lie on a circle with centre O. If the angle at the circumference ∠ACB = 75°, find the angle at the centre ∠AOB.
