A circle has an arc of length 24π that is intercepted by a central angle of 80°. What is the radius of the circle?
I got radius= 54
arc/2pi r = degrees/360
then fill in what you know: 24pi/2pi r = 80/360
Now cross multiply and you get: 8640pi = 160pi r
Now divide both sides by 160pi and you get: 54= r
The radius of the circle will be 54.
Given,
The length of the arc is 24\(\pi\).
The angle made by that arc is 80°.
We have to calculate the radius of the circle.
We know that,
\(\rm Angle=\dfrac{Arc}{Radius} \\\)
So,
\(80^\circ=\dfrac{24\pi }{\rm Radius}\)
Since \(\pi\) is equivalent to 180°.
\(\rm Radius=\dfrac{24\times 180^\circ}{80^\circ}\)
\(\rm Radius =54\)
Hence the radius of the circle is 54.
