Page 83 - A segment bounded by a diameter and a semicircumference is a "semicircle." A semicircle is half a circle. Read four segments each larger than a semicircle. The part of the circle between the two radii of, oi, and the arc/z, is called a
Page 152 - PROPOSITION XXII. THEOREM. DEMONSTRATION. We wish to prove that The angle formed by a tangent and a chord meeting at the point of contact is measured by half the intercepted arc. Let the tangent CAB and the chord AD meet at the point of contact A ; then will the angle BAD be measured by half the intercepted arc A D. For draw the diameter AE F. Because AB is a tangent, and AE a radius at the point of contact, the angle BAF is a right angle, and is measured by the semicircle AD F.
