a circle
Any number from 4 to infinity, depending on whether the arcs are allowed to overlap
31 degrees
236-124/2=56 degrees
If the circumference is split into 4 arcs then the 4th arc is 360-20-140-50 = 150 degrees
Examples to show how to use the property that the measure of a central angle is equal to the measure of its intercepted arc to find the missing measures of arcs and angles in given figures.

It is: 360/4 = 90 degrees
The unit of measure used for angles and arcs is called degrees. A full circle is divided into 360 degrees. Alternatively, radians can also be used as a unit of measure, where a full circle is equivalent to 2π radians.
Yes, as long as the arcs do NOT overlap.
31 degrees
45 degrees
½ the sum of the intercepted arcs.
236-124/2=56 degrees
No. The first is a measure of length, the second is a measure of angular displacement. If you have two circles with arcs of the same angular measure, the lengths of the arcs will not be the same.
Congruent Arcs
The circumference of a circle is 360 degrees so measure out five 72 degree arcs and join them to the centre of the circle.
20 degrees
