 Angles in the same segment of a circle are equal ; and, if the line joining two points subtends equal angles at two other points on the same side of it, the four points lie on a circle. The angle in a semicircle is a right angle ; the angle in a segment...  New Examination Statutes - Page 34by University of Oxford - 1915Full view - About this book
