It is 360 degrees divided by 6 = 60 degrees each.

-- Circumference of the circle = (pi) x (radius) -- length of the intercepted arc/circumference = degree measure of the central angle/360 degrees
No. It's a central angle only if its vertex is at the center of the circle.
Radius: A line from the center of a circle to a point on the circle. Central Angle: The angle subtended at the center of a circle by two given points on the circle.
The measure of the central angle divided by 360 degrees equals the arc length divided by circumference. So 36 degrees divided by 360 degrees equals 2pi cm/ 2pi*radius. 1/10=1/radius. Radius=10 cm.

The same as the central angle of the circle
A central angle is an angle whose vertex is at the center of a circle and whose sides (or rays) extend to the circumference, effectively subtending an arc on the circle. The measure of a central angle is equal to the measure of the arc it subtends. For example, if the central angle measures 60 degrees, the arc it subtends will also measure 60 degrees.
360 degrees
In a circle, a central angle is formed by two radii. By definition, the measure of the intercepted arc is equal to the central angle.
Each central angle is (360) divided by (number of sides in the polygon).
The arc formed where a central angle intersects the circle is called a "major arc" or "minor arc," depending on the size of the angle. The minor arc is the shorter path between the two points where the angle intersects the circle, while the major arc is the longer path. The measure of the arc in degrees is equal to the measure of the central angle that subtends it.

A central angle splits a circle into two distinct arcs: a major arc and a minor arc. The minor arc is the smaller arc that lies between the two points on the circle defined by the angle, while the major arc is the larger arc that encompasses the rest of the circle. The measure of the central angle is equal to the measure of the minor arc it subtends.
A central angle is formed by two radii in a circle that extend from the center to the circumference, creating an angle at the center. The vertex of the angle is located at the center of the circle, and the two sides of the angle intersect the circle at different points. The measure of the central angle is defined by the arc it subtends on the circle's circumference. Visually, it appears as a wedge shape within the circle.
