Congruent Arcs
Parallel lines intercept congruent arcs on a circle. More explanation: Parallel lines never interSECT but they can interCEPT Congruent arcs means that the two arcs would have the same measure of the arcs.
An arc is a portion of the circumference of a circle, and the circumference of a circle is the distance round a circle. So an arc looks like a semicircle, it is part of the circumference. Arcs are often used in constructions, for example if you were asked to draw an angle of 60 degrees without a protractor you would draw arcs following a special method. Arcs are drawn using a tool called a pair of compasses.
Congruent segments will depend on the radius, and whether the segments are straight lines or arcs.
