A circle has a circumference of 6. It has an arc of length 1.
1 answer:
<h3>Answer: 60 degrees</h3>
========================================================
Explanation:
The circumference is the perimeter of the circle. It's the distance around the circle's edge. Think of it like a fence.
The full circle's perimeter is 6 units. The arc length is a piece of that and it's 1 unit.
1/6 of the full perimeter is the arc length
1/6 of a full 360 degree rotation is (1/6)*360 = 360/6 = 60
The central angle of the arc is 60 degrees.
------------
If you want to use a formula, it would be
where,
A = central angle of the arc
L = arc length
C = circumference
You would plug in L = 1 and C = 6 to find that A = 60
