ACADEMIC VOCABULARY
central angle
B
Points A and B divide the circle into two arcs. The smaller arc is known
as the minor arc AB , and the larger arc is known as major arc AQB . The
angle formed by the two radii, ∠AOB, is called a central angle of this
circle.
In general, a central angle is an angle whose vertex is at the center
of a circle and whose sides contain radii of the circle. An arc intercepted
by a central angle is the minor arc that lies in the interior of the angle.
Notice that the major arc associated with points A and B lies outside
∠AOB, while the minor arc lies in the interior of ∠AOB. AB is said to be
intercepted by ∠AOB.
By definition, the measure of a minor arc is equal to the measure
of the central angle that intercepts the minor arc. The notation for “the
measure of AB ” is m
AB .
The notation for a minor arc
requires the endpoints of the
arc, AB . The notation for a major
arc requires a point on the arc
included between the endpoints
of the arc, AQB . Semicircles are
named as major arcs.
• The measure of a minor arc
must be between 0° and
180°.
• The measure of a major arc
must be at least 180° and
less than 360°.
