Use the formula for the area of a circular sector, and solve for the angle.For a circular sector: area = radius squared times angle / 2

(Note: The angle is supposed to be expressed in radians; and in this specific problem, there is no need to convert it to degrees.)

Since you know the area and the radius (according to the comments added to this question), you can solve for the angle.

Once you know the angle (in radians!), the arc length is simply angle x radius.

With the information given, you cannot. You need the radius or the central angle.

How can you find the length of an arc with the radius known?

The length of the arc is r*theta where r is the radius and theta the angle subtended by the arc at the centre of the circle. If you do not know theta (or cannot derive it), you cannot find the length of the arc.

What is the relation between area of a sector and length of an arc of a circle?

There is no direct relation between the area of a sector and the length of an arc. You must know the radius (or diameter) or the angle of the sector at the centre.

What is the arc in a circle that is 90 degrees?

To find the arc length, you also need to know the radius (or diameter) of the arc. The arc length is then found by finding the circumference of the full circle (2xPIxradius) and then dividing by 4 to find just one quarter of the circle (90 degrees).
