Secant-Secant Angles
Interior Secant Angle –
An angle formed when
two secants intersect
inside a circle.
Theorem 10.13
• A secant angle whose
vertex is inside a circle
is equal in measure to
half the sum of the
arcs intercepted by it
and its vertical angle.

Secant-Secant Angles
Exterior Secant Angle – An
angle formed when two
secants intersect outside a
circle.
Theorem 10.14
• A secant angle whose
vertex is outside a circle is
equal in measure to half
the difference of its larger
and smaller intercepted
arcs.

Tangent-Tangent Angles
Tangent-Tangent Angle –
An angle formed when
two tangents intersect in
the exterior of a circle.
Theorem 10.14
• A tangent-tangent angle
whose vertex is outside a
circle is equal in measure
to half the difference of its
larger and smaller
intercepted arcs.
