Exploring Central and Inscribed Angles

Mrs. Neeson introduces the topic of circles, focusing on arcs and angles. The video covers the basics of circle measurements, including major and minor arcs, and semicircles. It then delves into central angles, explaining their properties and how they relate to arcs. The lesson progresses to inscribed angles, highlighting their unique relationships with arcs. Finally, the video explores advanced concepts like angles formed by chords and tangents, providing a comprehensive understanding of circle geometry.
