Of 734 students, 442 are taking mathematics. What angle (in degrees) of a circle would show the percent of students taking mathe

Anestetic [448]

We need to find the angle (rounded to the nearest whole degree) of a circle that would represent the percent of students taking mathematics.

Since a complete turn around the circle has 360º, we have the following proportion:

<em>Number of students Angle</em>

734 360º

442 x

Then, cross multiplying the above values, we obtain:

$\begin{gathered} 734x=442\cdot360\degree \\ \\ x=\frac{442\cdot360\degree}{734} \\ \\ x\cong217\degree \end{gathered}$

<em>Answer</em>: 217º

39. Find the length of each arc shown in red. Leave your answer in simplified radical form.

andre [41]

Answer:

The length of the arc shown in red is $\frac{22}{9}\pi\ in$

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the circumference of the circle

The circumference is equal to

$C=2\pi r$

we have

$r=4\ in$

substitute

$C=2\pi (4)$

$C=8\pi\ in$

step 2

Find the length of the arc in red

Remember that the length of the circumference subtends a central angle of 360 degrees

by proportion find the length of the arc by a central angle of 110 degrees

$\frac{8\pi}{360}=\frac{x}{110}\\ \\x=8\pi*110/360\\ \\x=\frac{880}{360}\pi\ in$

Simplify

$\frac{880}{360}\pi=\frac{22}{9}\pi\ in$
