Answer:

Answer is yes

Explanation:

Given in the picture are two circles which are congruent.

This suggests that the radii of the two circles are equal.

Also the central angle of the two circles are congruent (given)

Consider triangles ABC and XYZ,

AC =XY: AB = YZ:

Angle A = Angle X

By SAS theorem, the two triangles are congruent.

Hence BC = YZ

So yes is answer.
