Verified Answer :

The answer is C.

The arc length is 6.806784.

Hope this helps.

Answer:

Option c is correct

l = 6.80 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The arc length(l) of circle is given by:

\(l = r \theta\)                     .......[1]

where,

r is the radius of the circle and

\(\theta\) is the central angle in radian.

As per the statement:

radius(r) = 6 inch

\(\theta = 65^{\circ}\)

Use conversion:

1 degree = π/180=\(\frac{3.14}{180}\)  radian

then;

65 degree = 1.13388889 radian.

Substitute the given values in [1] we have;

\(l = 6 \cdot 1.13388889\)

⇒\(l = 6.80333334\) inches

Therefore, the arc length of a circle to the nearest hundredth is,  6.80 inches
