To find the measure of a major arc in a circle, first determine the measure of the corresponding minor arc, which is the smaller arc connecting the same two endpoints. The measure of the major arc is then calculated by subtracting the measure of the minor arc from 360 degrees. For example, if the minor arc measures 120 degrees, the major arc would measure 360 - 120 = 240 degrees.
To find major arcs in a circle, first identify the endpoints of the arc on the circumference. Measure the angle subtended by the endpoints at the center of the circle; if the angle is greater than 180 degrees, the arc is a major arc. Alternatively, you can calculate the minor arc (the shorter arc between the two points) and subtract its length from the total circumference to find the length of the major arc. Major arcs are typically labeled with three points, including the endpoints and a point on the arc itself.
A whole circle is 360 deg so the major arc is 360-120 = 240 degrees.
Major arc.
No. Given two points on a circle, the minor arc is the shortest arc linking them. The major arc is the longest.
You find the arc measure and then you divide it in half to find the inscribed angle
major arc
A major arc must measure over 180 degrees, or pi radians
A whole circle is 360 deg so the major arc is 360-120 = 240 degrees.
Major arc.
the measure of a minor arc equals the measure of the central angle that intercepts it.
a+ hhahah
major arc is the correct answer
It depends on what measure related to the arc you want to find!
the answer is 98
A Mathematical Major Arc is the larger of the two arcs formed when a circle is divided into two unequal parts. Therefore as a result the measure of a major arc is always more than 180° and the sum of the measures of the major arc and the minor arc is always equal to 360°
