The circle below has center P, and its radius is 3 m. Given that m 2 QPR=170°, find the length of the minor arc OR.
1 answer:
Any smooth curve connecting two points is called an arc. The length of the arc m∠QPR is 2.8334π m.
<h3>What is the Length of an Arc?</h3>Any smooth curve connecting two points is called an arc. The arc length is the measurement of how long an arc is. The length of an arc is given by the formula,
where
θ is the angle, that which arc creates at the centre of the circle in degree.
Given the radius of the circle is 3m, while the angle made by the arc at the centre of the circle is 170°. Therefore,
The length of an arc = 2πr×(θ/360°) = 2π × 3 ×(170/360°) = 2.8334π m
Hence, the length of the arc m∠QPR is 2.8334π m.

Answer:
- See attachment for table values
- y₁ = y₂ for x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
In each case, put the x-value in the formula and do the arithmetic. If you're allowed, you can save some time and effort by realizing that the solution (x) will have to be an even number.
y₁ is an integer value for all integer values of x. y₂ is an integer value for even values of x only. y₁ and y₂ will both be integers (and possibly equal) only when x is even.
For example, for x = 6, we have
... y₁ = 3·6 - 8 = 18 -8 = 10
... y₂ = 0.5·6 +7 = 3 +7 = 10
That is, for x = 6, both columns of the table have the same number (10). That is, y₁ = y₂ for x = 6. The solution to the equation
... y₁ = y₂
is
... x = 6.
