NYS COMMON CORE MATHEMATICS CURRICULUM Lesson 20 M5 GEOMETRY Lesson 20: Cyclic Quadrilaterals Student Outcomes . Students show that a quadrilateral is cyclic if and only if its opposite angles are supplementary. 1 . Students derive and apply the area of cyclic quadrilateral 퐴퐵퐶퐷 as 퐴퐶 ⋅ 퐵퐷 ⋅ sin(푤), where 푤 is the measure 2 of the acute angle formed by diagonals 퐴퐶 and 퐵퐷. Lesson Notes In Lessons 20 and 21, students experience a culmination of the skills they learned in the previous lessons and modules to reveal and understand powerful relationships that exist among the angles, chord lengths, and areas of cyclic quadrilaterals. Students apply reasoning with angle relationships, similarity, trigonometric ratios and related formulas, and relationships of segments intersecting circles. They begin exploring the nature of cyclic quadrilaterals and use the lengths of the diagonals of cyclic quadrilaterals to determine their area. Next, students construct the circumscribed circle on three vertices of a quadrilateral (a triangle) and use angle relationships to prove that the fourth vertex must also lie on the circle (G-C.A.3). They then use these relationships and their knowledge of similar triangles and trigonometry to prove Ptolemy’s theorem, which states that the product of the lengths of the diagonals of a cyclic quadrilateral is equal to the sum of the products of the lengths of the opposite sides of the cyclic quadrilateral. Classwork Opening (5 minutes) Students first encountered a cyclic quadrilateral in Lesson 5, Exercise 1, part (a), though it was referred to simply as an inscribed polygon. Begin the lesson by discussing the meaning of a cyclic quadrilateral. Quadrilateral 퐴퐵퐶퐷 shown in the Opening Exercise is an example of a cyclic quadrilateral. What do you believe the term cyclic means in this case? The vertices 퐴, 퐵, 퐶, and 퐷 lie on a circle. Discuss the following question with a shoulder partner and then share out: What is the relationship of 푥 and 푦 in the diagram? 푥 and 푦 must be supplementary since they are inscribed in two adjacent arcs that form a complete circle. Make a clear statement to students that a cyclic quadrilateral is a quadrilateral that is inscribed in a circle.

NYS COMMON CORE MATHEMATICS CURRICULUM Lesson 20 M5 GEOMETRY . First, we are given that angles 퐴 and 퐶 are supplementary. What does this mean about angles 퐵 and 퐷, and why? MP.7 The angle sum of a quadrilateral is 360°, and since it is given that angles 퐴 and 퐶 are supplementary, angles 퐵 and 퐷 must then have a sum of 180°. We, of course, can draw a circle through point 퐴, and we can further draw a circle through points 퐴 and 퐵 (infinitely many circles, actually). Can we draw a circle through points 퐴, 퐵, and 퐶? Three non-collinear points can determine a circle, and since the points were given to be vertices of a quadrilateral, the points are non-collinear, so yes. Can we draw a circle through points 퐴, 퐵, 퐶, and 퐷? Not all quadrilaterals are cyclic (e.g., a non-rectangular parallelogram), so we cannot assume that a circle can be drawn through vertices 퐴, 퐵, 퐶, and 퐷. Where could point 퐷 lie in relation to the circle? 퐷 could lie on the circle, in the interior of the circle, or on the exterior of the circle. To show that 퐷 lies on the circle with 퐴, 퐵, and 퐶, we need to consider the cases where it is not, and show that those cases are impossible. First, let’s consider the case where 퐷 is outside the circle. On the diagram, use a red pencil to locate and label point 퐷′ such that it is outside the circle; then, draw segments 퐶퐷′ and 퐴퐷′. What do you notice about sides ̅퐴퐷̅̅̅̅′ and 퐶퐷̅̅̅̅̅′ if vertex 퐷′ is outside the circle? The sides intersect the circle and are, therefore, secants.
