Can two arcs have the same degree measure and still have different lengths?
s = rθs=arc lengthr=radius lengthθ= degree measure in radiansthis formula shows that arc length depends on both degree measure and the length of the radiustherefore, it is possible to for two arcs to have the same degree measure, but different radius lengthsthe circumference of a circle is a good example of an arc length of the whole circle
How do you find the arc length with the angle given?
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.
How do you find the radius when the arc length IS GIVEN?
You also need the measure of the central angle because arc length/2pi*r=measure of central angle/360.
What angle has the same measure as its arc?
Central angle
Find the measure of the central angle with the arc length of 29.21 and the circumference of 40.44?
260.03
