390. A circle is divided into five equal arcs by five points. Find the measure of each of them.
Problem 569
Official solution
The total of all arcs is , so each of them is
(The Inscribed Angle Theorem) Let and be points on a circle with center . Then the angle is equal to half the measure of the arc , that is, half the angle .
The angle is called an inscribed angle subtending the arc . Then we can say: an inscribed angle is equal to half the arc it subtends.
