    1) The documents contain multiple circle geometry questions from past GCSE and IGCSE exam papers involving angles, tangents, diameters, and arcs on circles. 2) Many questions ask to calculate the measure of an angle based on given information such as other angle measures, tangents, diameters, or the fact that points lie on a circle. 3) Justifications are often required, making use of circle properties such as angles at the circumference are equal to angles in the alternate interior segment, angles subtended by the same arc are equal, and angles between a tangent and chord are 90 degrees.
