standard_description: Prove theorems about lines and angles. Theorems include: vertical angles are congruent; when a transversal crosses parallel lines, alternate interior angles are congruent and corresponding angles are congruent; points on a perpendicular bisector of a line segment are exactly those equidistant from the segment’s endpoints.
problem_activity: Problem 1
In the diagram below,
$$\angle CAB$$
is a central angle,
$$\angle CDB$$
is an inscribed angle, and
$$\widehat{CB}$$
is an intercepted arc.

What do you notice about the inscribed angle and the central angle in relation to the intercepted arc?
The two diagrams below also show that
$$\angle CAB$$
is a central angle,
$$\angle CDB$$
is an inscribed angle, and
$$\widehat{CB}$$
is an intercepted arc.
