Question

In a circle, an arc length of 6.6 is intercepted by central angle of 2/3 radians. Determine the length of the radius.

Answer 1

Answer:

9.9

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we first need to know that the whole length of the circunference is related to a central angle of 2pi radians. Then, we can solve using a rule of three to find the radius:

arc of 6.6 -> central angle of 2/3

arc of 2*pi*r -> central angle of 2pi

2*pi*r * (2/3) = 6.6 * 2*pi

r * (2/3) = 6.6

r = 6.6 / (2/3) = 9.9

So the length of the radius is 9.9
