.
Central angle = Angle subtended by an arc of the circle from the center of the circle.
Inscribed angle = Angle subtended by an arc of the circle from any point on the circumference of the circle.
inscribed angle = 1/2 central angle.
Diameter is a semi circle. It subtends 180 deg
so angle ACB will always be 90 deg. wherever C is located
