Question

State if each angle is an inscribed angle. If it is, name the angle and the intercepted arc.

Answer 1

Answer:

No, there are no inscribed angle in this diagram; Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

~ Let us apply process of elimination to solve this problem ~

Option 1. This first example states firstly that m∠SRT is an inscribed angle. That is not true, by definition an inscribed angle is an angle created by two chords that share a common endpoint. Neither RS nor RT are chords, in fact they each are radii, creating a central angle instead.

Option 2. m∠RST is not created by two chords, instead by arc ST and radii RS ⇒ and I believe I am not familiar with what angle it is reffered to, if at all it is named.

Option 3. As stated before, ∠SRT is not an inscribed angle; by definition an inscribed angle is an angle created by two chords that share a common endpoint, and neither RS nor RT are chords.

Option 4. Through elimination, Option D is the only possible answer left: Answer: No, there are no inscribed angle in this diagram
