Consider the following figure, in which an arc (or segment) AB subtends ∠AOB at the center O, and ∠ACB at a point C on the circumference.
We have to prove that. Draw the line through O and C, and let it intersect the circle again at D, as shown:
We make the following observations:
- InΔOAC, ∠OAC=∠OCA (because OA = OC )
- InΔOBC, ∠OBC=∠OCB (because OB = OC )
Thus,
- ∠AOD = 2 × ∠ACO
- ∠DOB = 2 × ∠OCB
⇒ ∠AOD + ∠DOB = 2(∠ACO + ∠OCB)
⇒ ∠AOB = 2 × ∠ACB
Hence Proved !!

Step-by-step explanation:
Theorem: The angle subtended by an arc of a circle at its center is twice the angle it subtends anywhere on the circle's circumference. The proof of this theorem is quite simple, and uses the exterior angle theorem – an exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the opposite interior angles.
