Three students, Alicia, Benjamin, and Caleb, are constructing a square inscribed in a circle with center at point C. Alicia draws two diameters and connects the points where the diameters intersect the circle, in order, around the circle. Benjamin tells Alicia that she was not being very accurate. He says that the diameters must be perpendicular to each other. Then she can connect the points, in order, around the circle. Caleb tells Alicia and Benjamin that he doesn't need to draw the second diameter. He says that because a triangle inscribed in a semicircle is a right triangle, he will simply draw two such triangles, one in each semicircle. Together the two triangles will make a square. Who is correct? O Only Caleb is correct. O Only Caleb and Benjamin are correct. O Only Benjamin is correct. O Only Alicia is correct. O Alicia, Benjamin, and Caleb are all correct.

Jim is building a deck for his family to enjoy. Because of a big bay window that juts out next to the deck, he has to build an angled section for the steps going down to the yard. The section will be a parallelogram. Assuming that he cannot accurately prove that any two sides are parallel, how can he be assured that he has an actual parallelogram? Identify the theorem that he will use and how he will use it.
