Chord Arc Theorem

If two chords in a circle are congruent, then their intercepted arcs are congruent.

DIRECTIONS:

This proving activity is a sort of game. If you got a perfect score, you will earn the MBI Agent Badge. MBI stands for Math Bureau of Investigation. It is related to investigation because every statement must be provided with accurate reason in order to prove the theorem correctly. Given the circle below, point O is the center and line segment FG and line segment BY are chords, and they are congruent (≅).Prove that arc FG ≅ arc BY.
