a circle
Yes, there can be congruent arcs on a circle. Arcs which subtend the same angle at the center are considered as congruent.
A pair of compasses are use to construct circles and arcs of circles
It measures half the sum of the arcs it intercepts.
Any number from 4 to infinity, depending on whether the arcs are allowed to overlap
Volcanoes and island arcs
Calderas
Volcanic arcs form at plate subduction zones. Island arcs are volcanic islands that form over "hot spots" in the Earth's mantle. Because the islands are moving with the oceanic plate, they eventually are removed from the hot spot, forming a chain of islands in the direction of the plate movement.

Island arcs are also called oceanic arcs. Many volcanoes form near converging plate boundaries where subduction occurs. Subduction causes slabs of oceanic crust to sink beneath a deep-ocean trench into the mantle. The crust melts and forms magma, which then rises back toward the surface. Volcanoes form when the magma erupts as lava. At the boundary where two oceanic plates collide, volcanoes can create a string of islands called an island arc. There are many island arcs. The main ones that we read of most often include Japan, New Zealand, Indonesia, Caribbean Islands, Philippines, and the Aleutians.
Yes they do. Hot spots form underwater too. The three types of island arcs are Pangomia, geomgloic, and istheimusguru. I hope I helped a lot.
