I need help question

Sagot :

a.

We are given the following information

arc length, S = 105.75 cm

1/360 of the circumference is 0.75 cm long

and, we need to find the measure of the angle in degrees

First, let's calculate the value of the circumference, C

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{1}{360}\cdot C=0.75 \\ \Rightarrow C=0.75\cdot360=270 \end{gathered}[/tex]

So, the circumference of the circle is 270 cm

Now, we can use the formula of the circumference to calculate the radius, r

[tex]\begin{gathered} C=2\pi r \\ r=\frac{C}{2\pi}=\frac{270}{2\pi}=\frac{135}{\pi}\cong42.97 \end{gathered}[/tex]

So, the radiu of the circle is 135/pi or about 42.97 cm

Finally, let's use the arc length formula to calculate the angle, Θ

[tex]\begin{gathered} s=r\theta \\ \theta=\frac{s}{r}=\frac{105.75}{\frac{135}{\pi}}=\frac{105.75\cdot\pi}{135}\cong2.46\text{rad} \\ \theta=360\cdot\frac{s}{2\pi r}=180\cdot\frac{105.75}{\pi\cdot\frac{135}{\pi}}=\frac{180}{135}\cdot105.75=141\degree \end{gathered}[/tex]

Thus, the angle is 141°

b.

we are given this information:

circumference, C = 414 cm

arc length, s = 259.9 cm

and, we need to find the measure of the angle in degrees

Now, let's use the following formulas

[tex]\begin{gathered} \theta=360\cdot\frac{s}{2\pi r} \\ r=\frac{C}{2\pi} \end{gathered}[/tex]

let's calculare r first

[tex]r=\frac{414}{2\pi}=\frac{207}{\pi}[/tex]

then, the angle is 225.22°

[tex]\theta=360\cdot\frac{259.9}{2\pi\cdot\frac{414}{2\pi}}=360\cdot\frac{259}{414}=226\degree[/tex]
