1. Five points on a circle separate the circle into five congruent arcs. (3 pts.) a. What is the degree measure of each arc? b. If the radius of the circle is 3 cm, what is the length of each arc? c. Suppose the points are connected consecutively with line segments. How do you describe the figure formed?
