Find the length of the arc
A.8 pie ft
B.32 pie ft
C.64 pie ft
D. 361 pie/ 12 ft

Explanation:

The perimeter around the circle is known as the circumference

The full circumference of a circle with radius r is

C = 2*pi*r

In this case, r = 16 is the radius, so,

C = 2*pi*r

C = 2*pi*16

C = 2*16*pi

C = 32pi

is the full distance around the circle. But we only want 90/360 = 1/4 of that total distance. So take 1/4 of 32pi to get

(1/4)*32pi = (1/4*32)pi = 8pi

The arc length is exactly 8pi feet long

Approximately this is about 25.13274 feet

A.   8π  ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

perimeter of a circle = 2 π r

where r = 16

find: length of arc.

since the arc is 1/4 of a circle. just multiply it with the formula above.

arc length = 1   x 2 π 16

                     4

arc length = 8π  ft.

x = central angle apc = measure of minor arc ac

the two angles x and 30 add to 180, so x+30 = 180 and x = 180-30 = 150. the measure of minor arc ac is 150 degrees.

what we need to do from here is find the circumference and then multiply it by x/360 since there are 360 degrees in a circle. in this case, x = 150, so x/360 = 150/360 = 15/36 = 5/12. the shortest distance along the curve from a to c is 5/12 of the distance around the entire circle (aka circumference)

c = circumference

c = pi*d

c = pi*24

c = 24pi

now multiply this by 5/12 to get

distance along minor arc ac = (5/12)*(circumference)

distance along minor arc ac = (5/12)*(24pi)

distance along minor arc ac = 10pi

the formula you can use is

l = (x/360)*pi*d

with

l = length of minor arc

x = central angle

d = diameter

which essentially is the steps we took though a bit differently.
