You also need the measure of the central angle because arc length/2pi*r=measure of central angle/360.
In a circle, a central angle is formed by two radii. By definition, the measure of the intercepted arc is equal to the central angle.
central angle central angle
An arc can be measured either in degree or in unit length. An arc is a portion of the circumference of the circle which is determined by the size of its corresponding central angle. We create a proportion that compares the arc to the whole circle first in degree measure and then in unit length. (measure of central angle/360 degrees) = (arc length/circumference) arc length = (measure of central angle/360 degrees)(circumference) But, maybe the angle that determines the arc in your problem is not a central angle. In such a case, find the arc measure in degree, and then write the proportion to find the arc length.
the measure of the inscribed angle is______ its corresponding central angle
If three central angles measures 65, 87, and 112, find the measure of the fourth central angle.
If the central angle is 70 and the radius is 8cm, how do you find out the chord lenght?
Idl
The central angle of the circle is the angle around a point and so, be definition, it must be 360 degrees.
The entire circumference has a central angle of 360 degrees. The arc is a fraction of the circumference. The fraction is (central angle) divided by (360). So the arc length is: (circumference) x (central angle) / (360) .
