The endpoints of an arc determine a central angle called the central angle of the arc. |
|
| This proportion is to calculate the length of an arc. With this proportion, all you do is cross multiply and divide to find each variable. | |
|
|
Now, if you wanted to calculate the arc length of this figure, all you need to know is circumference and central angle to find the arc-length. |
| From the figure shown above, these are the variables that are given to solve this problem. |
|
|
|
|
Now, after you substitute, just cross multiply and divide. |
|
|
Your answer should be 70.65 in |
