Corresponding angles are equal
Corresponding sides are in proportion
What is the difference between a central angle and an inscribed angle?
Central: vertex lies at the center point of the circle
Inscribed: vertex on the circle itself
What is the relationship between the central angle and the inscribed angle?
inscribed angle = equivalent central angle / 2
