Properties of Circles

What is pi? If the area of a circle is 49π, what is its circumference? If a circle is inscribed in a square, what is the ratio of the areas of the circle and the square?

Circles - Central Angles

Imagine a circle divided into equal sectors via \(n\) straight lines that cross point \(O\), the center of the circle. Let sector \(ABO\) be one of those sectors. When \(n=20,\) what is \(\angle OAB\) in degrees? (Round down to the nearest degree if there is a decimal.)
