How does one calculate arc length when given the radius and angle measure in degrees?
To find the arc length given the radius and angle measure in degrees, you must first convert the angle from degrees to radians, using the formula: Degrees = Radians X (pi/180). Then take the radians and the radius that you are given, and put them into the formula of Q = (a/r) where Q is the angle in radians, a is the arc length, and r is the radius. When you have this, simple multiply both sides by the radius to isolate the a. Once you do this, you have your answer.

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.
What is the arc length of a sector that is 125degrees and has a radius of 20 inches?
The arc length of a sector that is 125 degrees and has a radius of 20 inches is: 43.63 inches.
How do you get the radius if angle is 150 degrees and length of arc is 330 cm?
Well, isn't that just a happy little question! To find the radius when you have the angle and arc length, you can use the formula: radius = (arc length) / (angle in degrees) * (π/180). Just plug in the values you have, and you'll have your radius in no time. Remember, there are no mistakes, just happy little accidents in math!
What is the formula to calculate the length of a chord given the included angle and radius?
the length is: 2rsin(1/2 theta) where r is the radius and theta is the included angle.
How do you calculate diamater with width and length?
diameter of a circle = 2*radius or circumference/pi
How do you find the length of of the radius of a circle?
You can either measure it, or calculate it if you know the diameter (radius = diameter / 2), or the circumference (radius = circumference / (2pi)).
How do you calculate the length of an arc of a circle?
The length of the arc is equal to the radius times the angle (angle in radians). If the angle is in any other measure, convert to radians first. (radians = degrees * pi / 180)

If An ARC measures 120 degrees what is the length of the radius of the circle?
The radius of a circle has no bearing on the angular measure of the arc: the radius can have any positive value.
How do you calculate developed length of sheet metal forming?
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.
What is the measure of an arc on an angle that is 84 degrees?
84*r*pi/180 units of length where the radius is r units of length.
Is the measure of an arc equal to the measure of its central angle?
Yes. Besides the included angle, arc length is also dependant on the radius. Arc length = (Pi/180) x radius x included angle in degrees.
How do you find the radius of a circle if the central angle is 36 degrees and the arc length of the sector is 2 pi cm?
The measure of the central angle divided by 360 degrees equals the arc length divided by circumference. So 36 degrees divided by 360 degrees equals 2pi cm/ 2pi*radius. 1/10=1/radius. Radius=10 cm.
How do you find the length of an arc in a circle?
You can measure it with a string. If you want to calculate it based on other measurements, you can multiply the radius times the angle, assuming the angle is in radians. If the angle is in degrees, convert it to radians first.
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
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.
What is the measure of the central angle if the arc length is 36 and the radius is 9?
It is: 36/18pi times 360 = about 229 degrees
