Capitolo 1, Problema 2
Find the length of the arc on a circle of radius 20 feet intercepted by a 75° central angle. Express arc length in terms of 𝜋. Then round your answer to two decimal places.
Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
Identify the given values: the radius \(r = 20\) feet and the central angle \(\theta = 75^\circ\).
Recall the formula for the length of an arc: \(L = r \times \theta\), where \(\theta\) must be in radians.
Convert the central angle from degrees to radians using the conversion \(\theta_{rad} = \theta_{deg} \times \frac{\pi}{180}\), so calculate \(75^\circ \times \frac{\pi}{180}\).
Substitute the radius and the radian measure of the angle into the arc length formula: \(L = 20 \times \left(75 \times \frac{\pi}{180}\right)\).
Simplify the expression to write the arc length in terms of \(\pi\), then use a calculator to approximate the decimal value and round it to two decimal places.

Ecco i concetti essenziali che devi comprendere per rispondere correttamente alla domanda.
Arc Length Formula
The arc length of a circle is the distance along the curved line forming part of the circle's circumference. It is calculated using the formula s = rθ, where r is the radius and θ is the central angle in radians. This formula connects linear and angular measurements on a circle.

Finding Missing Side Lengths
Conversion Between Degrees and Radians
Angles can be measured in degrees or radians. Since the arc length formula requires the angle in radians, convert degrees to radians by multiplying by π/180. For example, 75° equals (75 × π/180) radians, which is essential for accurate calculation.
