In a circle with a radius of 3635 cm, an arc is intercepted by a central angle of 2Ο7 radians. What is the arc length? Use 3.14 for Ο and round your final answer to the nearest hundredth. Enter your answer as a decimal in the box.
Accepted Solution
A:
For this case, the first thing you should know is that the formula for the arc length is given by:
[tex]S = R * \alpha[/tex]Where,
R: radius of the circle
Ξ±: central angle.
For this case we are going to assume that the correct data are:
[tex]R = \frac {36} {35}\\\alpha = \frac {2 \pi} {7}[/tex]Substituting values we have:
[tex]S = \frac {36} {35} * \frac {2 \pi} {7}[/tex]Calculated:
[tex]S = 0.923 cm[/tex]Answer:
The arc length is:
[tex]S = 0.923 cm[/tex]
