Question 4 and 5 were taken from jmap.org . Included below are the worked out
answers provided from that excellent website.

GM and ML form a semi-circle and

Given circle O with diameter GOAL; measure 126 ( 7 180) and 54
10
secants HUG and HTAM intersect at
3
point H; mGM : mML : mLT 7 : 3: 2; ( 180) , respectively. LT measures
10
and chord GU chord UT. Find the
36. GM and ML form a semi-circle
ratio of mUGL to mH.
and measure 126. GUT measures 144
(180 36). Equal chords intercept equal
arcs. Because chord GU chord UT,
144
GU and UT each measures 72 (
).
2
mUTL 108 (72 36). The measure of
an inscribed angle is half that of its
intercepted arc. So mUGL 54.
The angle formed by a tangent and a
secant is equal to half the difference
between the intercepted arcs:
126 72
27
2

The ratio of mUGL to mH is 54:27,

or 2:1.

BA, AG and GF form a semi-circle and

In the accompanying diagram, circle O
3
2
measure 90 ( 180), 60 ( 180)
has radius OD, diameter BOHF , secant
6
6
1
CBA, and chords DHG and BD; CE and 30 ( 180) , respectively. The
6
is tangent to circle O at D; mDF 80; measure of an inscribed angle is half that
of its intercepted arc. So mBDG 75
and mBA : mAG : mGF 3: 2 :1.
Find mGF , mBHD, mBDG, ( 90 60 ) and mHBD 40 ( 80 ).
2
2
mGDE, mC , and mBOD.
Therefore mBHD 65 (180-(75+40)).
The angle formed by a tangent and a chord is
half the intercepted arc. Since the intercepted
arc is 110 (80+30), mGDE 55. Given

diameter

BOHF

and

mDF 80,

mBD 100. The angle formed by a

tangent and a secant is equal to half the
difference between the intercepted arcs,
so mC :
(60 30 80) 100
35
2

The measure of a central angle is equal to

the measure of the arc it intercepts, so
mBOD 100.
