the length is: 2rsin(1/2 theta) where r is the radius and theta is the included angle.
This requires trigonometry If theta is the angle from the center of the circle to the edges of the chord, then chord length = 2Rsin (theta/2)
This is referred to as a chord. If the chord passes through the center of the circle, it represents the diameteror width of the circle.For a circle, the length of the diameter is the longest possible length of a chord.
There are a couple of different ways of finding the length of the chord of a circle. Probably the best is what is called the half angle formula.
R = radius c = chord length s = curve length c = 2Rsin(s/2R) you can solve for radius by trial and error as this is a transcendental equation
You cannot. If you rotate the circle around its centre, the lengths of the radius and chord will remain the same but the coordinates of the chord will change.
If you are given a chord length of a circle, unless you are given more information about the chord, you can not determine what the radius of the circle will be. This is because the chord length in a circle can vary from a length of (essentially) 0, up to a length of double the radius (the diameter). The best you can say about the radius if given the chord length, is that the length of the radius is at least as long has half half the chord length.
r = known radius x = known arc length --------------------------- C (circumference of circle) = 2 * PI * r A (angle of chord in degrees) = x / C * 360 L (length of chord) = r * sin(A/2) * 2
the length is: 2rsin(1/2 theta) where r is the radius and theta is the included angle.
You can use the cosine rule to calculate the central angle.
multiply the chord length and radius and divide by 2
Unless the chord is the diameter, there is no way to measure the radius of the circle. This is because the radius is in no way dependent on chord length since circles have infinite amount of chord lengths.
the chord is 4in long
This requires trigonometry If theta is the angle from the center of the circle to the edges of the chord, then chord length = 2Rsin (theta/2)
ON the cad offset the bend radius from the internal radius of the sheet metal part by 40% of the total sheet thickness,and measure the chord length of the radius. that will be the developed length.
A chord of a circle is a straight line that joins any two points on the circumference of a circle. The diameter of a circle is the length of the chord that passes through the centre of the circle; it is the chord of longest length and is twice the radius of the circle in length.
The length of a chord = pi*r*x/180 where x is the angle subtended. = pi*5*80/180 = 6.98 cm
