Best Answer

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.

Measures of minor arcs equal measures of inscribed angles?

A regular decagon is inscribed in a circle find the measure of each minor arc?

Oh, dude, a regular decagon has 10 sides, so each minor arc in the circle would be formed by connecting two consecutive vertices of the decagon. Since there are 10 vertices, there will be 10 minor arcs, each measuring 36 degrees. So, like, each minor arc would have a measure of 36 degrees. Easy peasy!

Is it true an acute angle inscribed in a circle must intercept a minor arc?

No, because there is no acute angle in a circle.

The central angle of a minor arc is than inscribed angle of its corresponding major arc?

This cannot be answered. This does not make any sense.

Can a father file sole custudy of a child when the mother is a minor?

He can try, but the minor mother have equal rights to the child. They will not remove the child from her based on the fact that she is a minor as long as she is a fit parent.


What is the measure of the angle formed by two tangents drawn to a circle from an external point if they intersect a major arc whose measure is 243 and the minor arc measures 117?

63o. Join the points where the tangents touch the circle to its centre to form a quadrilateral (two meeting tangents and two radii). These angles are both 90o, summing to 180o. Thus the other two angles - the one at the centre of the circle and the one where the tangents meet - sum to 360o - 180o = 180o (they are supplementary). The centre angle is given as 117o (the minor arc), so the angle where the tangents met is 180o - 117o = 63o.


What is the fraction for two rhombuses?

The answer depends on what the comparison is of: their areas, their perimeters, their acute angles, their major [minor] diagonals or some other characteristic.


What is a Major Arc?

A Mathematical Major Arc is the larger of the two arcs formed when a circle is divided into two unequal parts. Therefore as a result the measure of a major arc is always more than 180° and the sum of the measures of the major arc and the minor arc is always equal to 360°
