A) ∠ BDA = 60°

∠DBA = 30°

B) sin (∠DBA) = sin 30° = 1/2

C) arc AB = 1/3 · 2 r π = 1/3 · 18 π = 6 π = 6 · 3.14 = 18.84 cm

D) arc AD : arc AB = 1 : 2

E) Degree measure of an arc is equal to the measure of the central angle that intercepts the arc. The degree measure is 60° (F E = 9 cm, r = 9 cm).
