Let A0.A1,A2,A3,A4 devide a unit circle (circle of radius one) into five equal parts. Prove that the chords A0 A1, A0 A2 satisfy:
(A0 A1 * A0 A2)^2 = 5.
Consider a circle with radius r and center O.
Since A0, A1, A2, A3, A4 devide this unit circle into five equal parts.
Hence radius (r) = 1
Now consider the two chords A0A1 and A0A2.
