a minor arc measures less than 180 degrees...
Sometimes~ Minor arcs have central angles less than 180 degrees because 180 is a semi-circle and above 180 is a major arc. An acute angle is less than 90 degrees, so this is only true sometimes.
50 pennies equal one half of the major unit of currency. Since many countries use pennies as their minor currency units and their major units don't all have the same name, it is not possible to be any more precise.
The short answer is: because that is what a kite is. Long answer (although some minor steps have been skipped): Consider a kite, ABCD, where AB = DA and BC = CD Draw the diagonal AC. Then triangles ABC and ACD are congruent (SSS). So angle BAC = angle DAC. Now draw diagonal BD which intersects AC at E. Then triangles ABE and ADE are congruent (SAS) So angle AEB = angle AED. But these angles are supplementary. Therefore they must be right angles.
Major is a word. It is the antonym of minor.
lol. your on odyssey ware
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!
minor arc of cord is half of major arc of same cord
No, because there is no acute angle in a circle.

This cannot be answered. This does not make any sense.
A minor arc.

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