    ANGLES IN SEGMENTS

    Angles in segments

    1. Angles in the same segment. When two triangles are inside a circle and their points touch the sides, angles on the upper layer are the same. This is called angles in the same segment.













    In this case, angle A and B is the same because of the property: angle in the same segments.

    In full: the angles in the same segment of a circle are equal.
    Abbreviation: angles in the same segment.


    Examples:
    In the diagram, AC and BD intersect at E, ∠ACB=54° and ∠ABD=53°. Find ∠ADB and ∠DAB.












    ∠ADB=54° (∠s in the same segment)

    ∠DAB=180-53-54
    =73° (sum of ∠ in a triangle)
