Which angles see the same chord?
- Two observers see the same chord from the circle. Their angles are linked by a theorem rather than by the apparent size of the drawing.
- This lesson studies cyclic quadrilateral 圆内接四边形: A quadrilateral whose four vertices lie on one circle.
Choose the mathematical structure
- The angle at the centre is twice the angle at the circumference on the same arc. Angles in the same segment are equal. Opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral sum to 180°. A radius is perpendicular to a tangent at contact.
- State the allowed inputs and units before calculating. An equation should express the relationship, not just record a calculator entry.
A cyclic quadrilateral has one angle of 112°. Why is the opposite angle 68°?

The 180° property belongs to CYCLIC quadrilaterals - vertices on one circle - and fails for a general quadrilateral. Here 180-112=68°.
Work through a checked case
- Check the result against the starting quantities. Substitute into the original relation, or compare the graph and numerical answer where appropriate.
If a central angle is 100°, the corresponding angle at the circumference is 50°. In a cyclic quadrilateral with one angle 112°, its opposite angle is 180-112=68°. A radius meeting a tangent gives 90°, even if the drawing looks oblique.

For the same chord and corresponding arc, centre angle=twice circumference angle: 100/2=50°.
Test a tempting shortcut
- Identify the same chord and the correct arc before using a theorem. Two visible right angles do not prove a quadrilateral cyclic without a valid converse argument. A diagram need not be to scale.
- When a shortcut fails, identify the assumption it breaks. Keep an exact value until the requested final rounding.
Every quadrilateral has opposite angles summing to 180°. This claim is false. Explain which definition or assumption it violates.

Interpret a new situation
- Write one reason alongside each angle calculation. For the alternate-segment theorem, name the tangent and chord, then identify the angle in the opposite segment. Use auxiliary radii only when they help the proof.
- A complete solution gives the mathematical result and explains what it means. Check that it is possible in the stated context.
