Complementary
Supplementary
2. If two minor arcs in the same circle are congruent, then their corresponding chords are:
Parallel
Perpendicular
Congruent
Intersecting
3. In a circle, if a diameter is perpendicular to a chord, then it the chord and its arc.
4. Two circles are congruent if and only if they have congruent .
5. In circle O, chord AB is congruent to chord CD. If the measure of arc AB is 70°, what is the measure of arc CD? Explain your reasoning.
