exactly three times as far from point A as they are from point B?
A CD, because it exists in our dimension, has three distinct points you can measure therefor it is a cylinder.

A chord is a line that joins to points on the circumference of a circle. If it passes through the center of the circle it's called a diameter.
It takes exactly 2 distinct points to uniquely define a line, i.e. for any two distinct points, there is a unique line containing them.

In geometry, an arc is a curved portion of a circle. It is defined by two endpoints and the points along the circumference of the circle that lie between the endpoints. The measure of an arc is typically given in degrees.
I presume you mean the circumference of a circle. If P and Q are two points on the circumference of a circle with center O, the number of degrees in the arc PQ is defined as the number of degrees in the angle POQ.
There are an infinite number of points on the circumference of a circle and an infinite number of points on a semi-circle so the answer to your question is "An infinite number of pairs of points."

54000 Km is the answer 10 degrees of arc is one 36th of the circumference so I multiplied 1500 Km times 36. cptnkirk3@sbcglobal.net

No. Two distinct points define a single line.
Degrees Celsius measure temperature. It is a unit of measurement typically used to express temperatures in the Celsius scale, which is based on the freezing and boiling points of water at sea level.
First you calculate the circumference of the circle using the standard formula C=pi x D, Where C is the circumference, D is the Diameter of your circle (measured across the widest part of the circle) and pi is a known constant of 3.14 (discovered by the ancient Greeks or is that ancient Geeks?). So if your circle is 300 mm across (12 inches in old terms) then it is calculated as so: 3.14 x 300 = 942mm circumference. To work out the distance between the points you need to decide how many points are required around the circle (circumference). For this explanation I will use 8 points and we know a circle has 360 degrees as seen on a compass therefore divide 360 degrees by 8 points as so: 360 / 8 = 45 degrees. Now the final part to calculate the distance from the first point to the second of 8 points we divide the circumference of the circle 942 mm by 360 degrees to find out the distance of one degree, I hope you are starting to see where I am going with this, as so: 942 / 360 = 2.61666667 mm then you take the answer for 1 degree of the circumference and multiply it by 45 degrees (which is one eight of the circle, giving us the eight points) as so: 2.61666667 x 45 = 117.75mm (or 4.71 inches). Hey presto 'simples' you have the answer! By the way pi is actually 3.14159 and the first people to be aware of such a constant were the Egyptians followed by the Babylonians although their pi's were not as accurate!
We have no idea where the points D, E, and F are. A sketch would have really helped us.
