When the angle is measured in radians

arc_length = angle x radius.

So,

20cm = angle x 12cm

=> angle = 20cm / 12cm

~= 1.67 radians

What is radian measure?

A unit of angular measure equal to the angle subtended at the center of a circle by an arc equal in length to the radius of the circle, approximately 57°17'44.6"


How do you find radius of a circle if given arc length?

you will need to know the angle subtended by the arc; arc length = radius x angle in radians


What is the name for 90 degrees in the circle?

If an arc of a circle is drawn so that the length of the arc is equal to the radius of the circle then the angle at the centre of the circle subtended by the arc is called one radian.Then the angle subtended by the entire circle is given by the ratio , circumference / radius = 2πr/r = 2π radians.2π radians is equivalent to 360°So, π radians = 180°and thus, π/2 radians = 90°Pi over two, or Pi divided by two radians is the name for 90° in a circle.


What is angular speed measured in?

Angular speed is typically measured in radians per second (rad/s). One radian is equal to the angle subtended at the center of a circle by an arc whose length is equal to the radius of the circle.


What is the length of arc subtended by a central angle of 101.6 degrees in a circle with a diameter of 219 feet?

101.6 degrees = 1.7733 radians. So arc = radius*angle (in radians) = 219/2*1.7733 = 194.2 ft.


If you have a Radian of 65 and a radius of 5 what is the length of the arc?

The length of an arc subtending an angle of x radians ir r*x. Here the angle subtended is 65 radians so the length of the arc is 5*65 = 325 units (slightly more than 10 times round the circle).


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.


What is the relationship between angular measurements in radians and degrees in physics?

In physics, angular measurements can be expressed in both radians and degrees. Radians are the preferred unit for angular measurements because they directly relate to the arc length of a circle's circumference. One radian is equal to the angle subtended by an arc that is equal in length to the radius of the circle. In contrast, degrees are based on dividing a circle into 360 equal parts. The relationship between radians and degrees is that 1 radian is equal to approximately 57.3 degrees.


How to find length of arc if radius and angle subtended at the center are given?

Full circumference of the circle = (2 pi) times (radius)Arc is a fraction of the full circumference.The fraction is (angle subtended at the center) divided by (360 degrees).If you have the radius 'R' and the angle 'A', the length of the arc is(pi) (R) (A) / 180


The ratio of the arc length to the radius?

The arc_length is given by the angle measured in radians times the radius of the arc. To convert degrees to radians divide by 180° and multiply by π radians. eg 45° = 45° ÷ 180° × π radians = π/4 radians. eg 60° = 60° ÷ 180° × π radians = π/3 radians.


A chord of a circle of radius 5cm subtends the length of 80 degree at the center of the circle find the length of the chord?

The length of a chord = pi*r*x/180 where x is the angle subtended. = pi*5*80/180 = 6.98 cm
