This task provides a good opportunity to use isosceles triangles and their properties to show an interesting and important result about triangles inscribed in a circle with one side of the triangle a diameter. The fact that these triangles are always right triangles is often referred to as Thales' theorem. Aligns with G-C.A.2.
