Demystifying - The angle at the centre

Drills

The angle at the centre is double the angle at the circumference on the same arc, however the figure is drawn.

Author note — to cover (Higher)

Higher only (G10): the angle at the centre is twice the angle at the circumference standing on the same arc, in standard, arrowhead and reflex configurations, with the semicircle case shown as a corollary. Full reason wording required; the proof lives on the proving page. (G10)
