How long is the arc intersected by a central angle of startfraction pi over 2 endfraction radians in a circle with a radius of 4.5 cm? round your answer to the nearest tenth. use 3.14 for pi.

Respuesta :

7.1 cm  long is the arc intersected by a central angle .

What is length of an arc?

  • The arc length of a circle can be calculated with the radius and central angle using the arc length formula.
  • Length of an Arc = θ × r, where θ is in radian. Length of an Arc = θ × (Ï€/180) × r, where θ is in degree.

Given,

Central angle = π / 2

radius = 4.5 cm

we apply formula of length of arc.

length of the arc = angle ×  radius

                              = (π/2) × (4.5 cm)

Now put value of π = 3.14

length of the arc = (3.14 / 2) × (4.5) cm

                            = 7.065 cm ≈ 7.1 cm

Therefore, 7.1 cm  long is the arc intersected by a central angle .
