standard_description: Identify and describe relationships among inscribed angles, radii, and chords. Include the relationship between central, inscribed, and circumscribed angles; inscribed angles on a diameter are right angles; the radius of a circle is perpendicular to the tangent where the radius intersects the circle.
problem_activity: Task
Suppose $\overline{AB}$ is a diameter of a circle and $C$ is a point on the circle different from $A$ and $B$ as in the picture below:

Show that triangles $COB$ and $COA$ are both isosceles triangles.
Use part (a) and the fact that the sum of the angles in triangle $ABC$ is $180$ degrees to show that angle $C$ is a right angle.
