    Prove:

    The angle inscribed in a semicircle is a right angle.

    The inscribed angle theorem states that the angle θ, inscribed in a circle is half the measure of the central angle of the circle. So, if the given is a semi-circle, then the inscribed angle is half of 180, therefore, 90 degrees and a right angle.

    A circle measures 360 degrees, so a semicircle measures 180 degrees. By using the inscribed angle theorem, the measure of the inscribed angle would be half of 180 degrees, or 90 degrees, which is a right angle.

    That's the right answer I got.
