1. Angle at the Centre
- The angle subtended at the centre of a circle is twice the angle subtended at the circumference by the same arc.
2. Angles by the Same Arc
- Angles subtended at the circumference by the same arc are always equal.
3. Angle in a Semi‑circle
- The angle formed in a semi‑circle is always a right angle (90°).
4. Cyclic Quadrilateral
- In a cyclic quadrilateral (all vertices lie on a circle), opposite angles add up to 180°.
5. Tangent and Radius
- The angle between a tangent and the radius drawn to the point of contact is 90°.
6. Tangents from a Point
- From any point outside a circle, exactly two tangents can be drawn.
- These tangents are of equal length.
7. Alternate Segment Theorem
- The angle between a tangent and its chord is equal to the angle in the alternate segment.
8. Equal Chords
- Equal chords of a circle are equidistant from the centre.
9. Perpendicular Bisector of a Chord
- The perpendicular bisector of a chord always passes through the centre of the circle.
