    I will assume you specifying the region as defined by the circumference, not disection via an intersecting line. If so, then 1 or infinite, take you pick depending upon the mathematical model you employ for analysis.

    Catch ya' later,

    It has to be infenit becasue pi is an infenit number.


    And no its not 360, becasue 360° is the ° of an angle, not of a circle.
