In a plane, an angle whose vertex is the center of a circle is a central angle of the circle. If the measure of a central angle, APB is less than 180°, then A and B and the points of P

in the interior of APB form a minor arc of the circle. The points A and B and the points of P in the exterior of APB form a major arc of the circle. If the endpoints of an arc are the endpoints of a diameter, then the arc is a semicircle.

NAMING ARCS
Arcs are named by their endpoints. For example, the minor arc associated with APB above is . Major arcs and semicircles are named by their endpoints and by a point on the arc.

For instance, m = mGHF = 60°.
m is read “the measure of arc GF.” You can write the measure of an arc next to the arc. The measure of a semicircle is always 180°.

NAMING ARCS
The measure of a major arc is defined as the difference between 360° and the measure of its associated minor arc. For example, m = 360° - 60° = 300°. The measure of the whole circle is 360°.

NOTE:
Two arcs of the same circle are adjacent if they intersect at exactly one point. You can add the measures of adjacent areas.
Postulate 26—Arc Addition Postulate. The measure of an arc formed by two adjacent arcs is the sum of the measures of the two arcs.

Masonry Hammer. A masonry hammer has a hammer on one end and a curved pick on the other. The pick works best if you swing it along a circular curve that matches the shape of the pick. Find the center of the circular swing.
EX. 6: USING PROPERTIES OF CHORDS
Draw a segment AB, from the top of the masonry hammer to the end of the pick. Find the midpoint C, and draw perpendicular bisector CD. Find the intersection of CD with the line formed by the handle. So, the center of the swing lies at E.
EX. 6: USING PROPERTIES OF CHORDS
In the same circle, or in congruent circles, two chords are congruent if and only if they are equidistant from the center.
