Answer:

An angle showing a turn through 1/5 of a circle is greater

Explanation:

we know that

A complete circle represent
360\°

so

An angle showing a turn through 1/6 of a circle is


(360\°)*((1)/(6))=60\°

An angle showing a turn through 1/5 of a circle is


(360\°)*((1)/(5))=72\°

therefore

An angle showing a turn through 1/5 of a circle is greater
