How do you work out angles in a semi-circle?
An inscribed angle is an angle formed by two chords in a circle which have a common endpoint. This common endpoint forms the vertex of the inscribed angle.The other two endpoints define an intercepted arc on the circle Any angle inscribed in a semi-circle is a right angle. The proof is simply that the intercepted arc is 180 so the angle must be half of that or 90 degrees.
Why is an inscribed angle that intercepts a semi-circle a right angle?
It is the consequence of one of the circle theorems and in some books, it is considered a theorem itself. The underlying proposition is that the angle subtended at the circumference of the circle by any arc of a circle is half the angle subtended at the centre. In the case of a semicircle, the arc is the half circle and the angle at the centre is the one that the diameter makes at the centre of the circle ie 180 degrees. So the angle at the circumference is half that ie 90 degrees.
