2. Finding Arc Measures
Sign In
Two arcs are congruent if and only if they have the same measure and they are in the same circle or in congruent circles.
Are the Arcs Congruent? No.
Explanation: The arcs are in circles that are not congruent.
Two arcs are congruent if and only if they have the same measure and they are in the same circle or in congruent circles. |
With this in mind, let's consider the given diagram.
The angles of the circles have the same measure and, therefore, are congruent. However, we can see that one circle is bigger than the other, which means that the circles are not congruent. Therefore, according to the recalled fact, the red arcs are not congruent.
