Answer:
[tex]arclength = 13.44 ft[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given PS = 28 feet, which is the length of the diameter.
The formula for arc length is [tex]2\pi r\frac{x}{360}[/tex], where x is the degrees.
So, we need to find the radius. We know that the radius is half of the diameter, so:
[tex]\frac{28}{2}=14 ft[/tex]
We also need to find ∠TXS. Since we know the diameter is a line that crosses the center point of the circle, we also know that ∠PXT and ∠TXS add up to 180°. So:
∠PXT + ∠TXS = 180
125 + ∠TXS = 180
∠TXS = 180 - 125
∠TXS = 55°
Now, we can use the arc length formula:
[tex]arclength=2\pi r\frac{x}{360}[/tex]
[tex]arclength=2\pi (14)\frac{55}{360}[/tex]
[tex]arclength=13.43903524...[/tex]
[tex]arclength = 13.44 ft[/tex]
