Cassiopeia contains two asterisms. The difference between an asterism and a constellations is that an asterism isn’t one of the 88 “official” constellations. Rather, it’s just a recognizable group of stars that forms some picture. The constellation’s first asterism is the “W,” which includes five of the constellation’s bright stars. To form the W, start with Epsilon (ε) Cassiopeiae, then head to Delta (δ), Gamma (γ), Alpha (α), and Beta (β) Cas. But it’s only a W about half the night. The other half, it’s just as fair to call it the “M.” The Queen’s second asterism is the Three Guides, but only one of the three stars — Beta Cassiopeiae — lies in the constellation. The other two stars are Alpha Andromedae and Gamma Pegasi. Now, here’s some trivia for you celestial navigators: Together, these three stars mark the equinoctial colure, the great circle that intersects both poles and both equinoxes.

Ursa Major, the great bear. Part of this constellation has a very prominent asterism which people refer to as the "Plough" or the "Big Dipper", part of this asterism is what is used to point to the pole star. ============================================= So it's actually the pole star, in the asterism of the "Little Dipper", in the constellation of Ursa Minor, that can help traveler find north pole without compass.
There are more than five stars in Cassiopeia but the major ones are as follows from the left of the 'W' / 'M': Caph, Beta Cassiopeia Shedar, Alpha Cassiopeia Cih, Gamma Cassiopeia Ruchbah, Delta Cassiopeia Sagin, Epsilon Cassiopeia
Ursa Major - the Great Bear - contains the ASTERISM known as the Big Dipper, which has always been used to find north.
