Inscribed Angle Theorem and Its Applications

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet
This Inscribed Angle Theorem and Its Applications lesson plan also includes:
  • Inscribed Angle Theorem and Its Applications (Doc)
  • Inscribed Angle Theorem and Its Applications (PDF)
  • Inscribed Angle Theorem and Its Applications (Doc)
  • Geometry Module 5: Teacher Materials
  • Geometry Module 5: Studnet Materials
  • Geometry Module 5: Copy Ready Materials

Instructional Ideas

  • Have pupils work in pairs
  • Create a visual to place in the classroom of the different cases of the Inscribed Angle Theorem

Classroom Considerations

  • Lesson assumes familiarity with inscribed and central angles, as it is not an introductory lesson
  • The fifth installment of a 23-part module

Pros

  • Teacher resource provides questioning prompts to use for guided discussion
  • Exercise set provides problems for learners to distinguish between inscribed and central angles and to apply the Inscribed Angle Theorem

Cons

  • None
