Answer:

right triangle

Explanation:

A circumcircle of a polygon is a circle that passes through all the vertices of the polygon.

If the diameter of the circle is one side of the triangle, then the triangle is in the semicircle.

The angle at the circumference in a semicircle is a right angle.

Therefore, the answer is right triangle
