name the highlighted arc. answer attempt 1 out of 2
Answer
Explanation:
Step1: Identify arc - naming convention
Arcs are named by their endpoints. If it's a minor arc (less than a semi - circle), we use two endpoints. If it's a major arc (more than a semi - circle), we use three endpoints.
Step2: Determine type of arc
The highlighted arc is a major arc as it is more than a semi - circle.
Step3: Name the arc
We name it using three endpoints in order. So the arc is named $\overset{\frown}{RGJI}$.
Answer:
$\overset{\frown}{RGJI}$
