Question

identify the highlighted part of circle o or p shown below.
answer
tangent
center
central angle
inscribed angle

Explanation:

• A tangent is a line that touches a circle at exactly one point. In the given diagram, the highlighted part is not a tangent.
• The center is a point inside the circle. The highlighted part is not a center.
• A central angle has its vertex at the center of the circle. The highlighted part does not have its vertex at the center of the circle.
• An inscribed angle has its vertex on the circle. The highlighted part has its vertex (point \(B\)) on the circle \(P\), so it is an inscribed angle.

Answer:

inscribed angle
