Application of relation between arc of length and central angle?
The relation between the arc of length and the central angle is that the arc of length divided by one of the sides is the central angle in radians. If the arc is a full circle, then the central angle is 2pi radians or 360 degrees.
What is the measure of the central angle of a circle with the arc length of 29.21 and the circumference of 40.44?
arc length/circumference = central angle/2*pi (radians) So, central angle = 2*pi*arc length/circumference = 4.54 radians. Or, since 2*pi radians = 360 degrees, central angle = 360*arc length/circumference = 260.0 degrees, approx.
In a 130 inch diameter circle what is the length of the arc intercepted by a central angle of 115 degrees?
Length of arc: 115/360 times (130pi) = 130.5 inches rounded
What is Relation between the length of the circular arc and the radian measures of its central angle?
You can think of an arc as a fraction of the circumferance of a circle. Also, a complete circle is 2pi radians, so any central angle is THETA / 2pi of a complete circle. Multiply by the circumferance to get the length of the arc: THETA / 2pi * 2(pi)(r) = THETA * r or the length of the arc is simply the radius times the central angle in radians
What are angles measured in radians equal to?
The angles measured in radians are about 57.3 degrees. A measurement of an angle in radians is equal to the length of its corresponding arc in the circle.
How do you work out the circumference of a circle using radius?
The formula for calculating the circumference of a circle is 2πr, where r is the radius of the circle and π is 3.1415926535890793 - usually shorted to either 3.1416 or 3.14 So that the circumference of a circle with a radius of 10 units is 62.83 units There are pi radians in a half of a circle. Thus, the measure of a central angle which is a straight line is pi radians. We have a formula that show that the length of an intercepted arc is equal to the product of the angle in radians that intercepts that arc, with the length of the radius of the circle. So we can say that the length of a semicircle is (pi)(r). In a full circle are 2pi radians. So the length of intercepted arc from a central angle with measure 2pi is 2(pi)(r).
What is the length of the arc intercepted on a circle of radius 14 cm by the arms of a central angle of 45?
Length of arc = angle (in radians)*radius = (pi/4)*14 = 10.996 cm
A central angle of a circle of radius 30 cm intercepts an arc of 6 cm Express the central angle in radians and in degrees?
A central angle is measured by its intercepted arc. Let's denote the length of the intercepted arc with s, and the length of the radius r. So, s = 6 cm and r = 30 cm. When a central angle intercepts an arc whose length measure equals the length measure of the radius of the circle, this central angle has a measure 1 radian. To find the angle in our problem we use the following relationship: measure of an angle in radians = (length of the intercepted arc)/(length of the radius) measure of our angle = s/r = 6/30 = 1/5 radians. Now, we need to convert this measure angle in radians to degrees. Since pi radians = 180 degrees, then 1 radians = 180/pi degrees, so: 1/5 radians = (1/5)(180/pi) degrees = 36/pi degrees, or approximate to 11.5 degrees.
If the radius of a circle is doubled how is the length of the arc intercepted by a fixed central angle changed?
If the radius of a circle is tripled, how is the length of the arc intercepted by a fixed central angle changed?
How do you find the degree measure of a central angle in a circle if both the radius and the length of the intercepted arc are known?
-- Circumference of the circle = (pi) x (radius) -- length of the intercepted arc/circumference = degree measure of the central angle/360 degrees
Application of relation between arc of length and central angle?
The relation between the arc of length and the central angle is that the arc of length divided by one of the sides is the central angle in radians. If the arc is a full circle, then the central angle is 2pi radians or 360 degrees.
Find Length of an arc of circle when measure of arc is 50 and radius is 3.5?
We have a formula of finding the arc length, s = θr, where s is the length of the intercepted arc, θ is the central angle measured in radians, and r is the radius of the circle. So that we need to convert 50 degrees in radians. 1 degrees = pi/180 radians 50 degrees = 50(pi/180) radians = 5pi/18 radians s = θr (replace θ with 5pi/18, and r with 3.5) s = (5pi/18)(3.5) = (17.5/18) pi ≈ 3 Thus, the length of the arc is about 3.
What is the measure of the central angle of a circle with the arc length of 29.21 and the circumference of 40.44?
arc length/circumference = central angle/2*pi (radians) So, central angle = 2*pi*arc length/circumference = 4.54 radians. Or, since 2*pi radians = 360 degrees, central angle = 360*arc length/circumference = 260.0 degrees, approx.

Length of arc: 115/360 times (130pi) = 130.5 inches rounded
What is the central angle of a circle with a circumference of 9 and arc length of 1?
2pi/9 radians or 40 degrees
What is Relation between the length of the circular arc and the radian measures of its central angle?
You can think of an arc as a fraction of the circumferance of a circle. Also, a complete circle is 2pi radians, so any central angle is THETA / 2pi of a complete circle. Multiply by the circumferance to get the length of the arc: THETA / 2pi * 2(pi)(r) = THETA * r or the length of the arc is simply the radius times the central angle in radians
An arc of a circle that is 6Cm in length intercepts a central angle of 1.5 radians find the number of Cm in the radius of the circle?
An arc of length 6cm subtending an angle at the centre of 1.5c is equivalent to the whole circle of length 2πr subtending 2π radians. Therefore, 6/1.5 = 2πr/2π = r : Then r = 4 cm. NOTE : A radian can be defined as the angle at the centre of a circle subtended by an arc equal in length to the radius. So an arc subtending an angle of 2 radians is twice the length of the radius. An arc subtending an angle of 1.5 radians is thus 11/2 times as long as the radius.
