Transcribed Image Text:The image shows a circle with four points on its circumference labeled \(M\), \(A\), \(H\), and \(T\). These points are connected by chords, forming a quadrilateral inside the circle.
- The point \(M\) is connected to \(A\) and \(H\).
- The point \(A\) is connected to \(T\).
- The point \(H\) is connected to \(T\).
- The point \(T\) is connected to \(M\).
The lines \(MA\), \(AT\), \(TH\), and \(HM\) form the sides of the quadrilateral. Additionally, there are two diagonals: \(MT\) and \(AH\).
This arrangement illustrates a cyclic quadrilateral, where all vertices lie on the circumference of a circle. In such quadrilaterals, opposite angles are supplementary. This figure is often used to demonstrate properties related to circle theorems in geometry.
