- Angle in a minor segment is obtuse and Angle in a major segment is acute
Cut a sheet of paper in the form of a circle. Fold the circle to form a chord thus
forming a major segment and a minor segment. From the extremities of the chord
fold the paper two times on either side of the chord to form two angles-one in the
major segment and the other in the minor segment. Observe that the angle formed in
the minor segment is always obtuse and the angle in the major segment is always
acute.
