    A corollary is a statement that follows readily from a previous theorem. Often, a corollary is a statement of a theorem in a more specific context.

    Example: Corollary 3 - each angle in a semicircle is a right angle.
    (follows readily from theorem 19 about the angle in a circle on a given arc is twice the size of another...blah blah)
