Given unit circle, so radius=1.
We calculate lengths of vertical segments, with the help of Pythagoras Theorem, based on a right triangle radiating from circle centre O, and hypotenuse from O to a point on the circumference.
AO=1 (given unit circle)
BB'=sqrt(1^2-0.25^2)=0.968246
CC'=sqrt(1^2-0.5^2)=0.866025
DD'=sqrt(1^2-0.75^2)=0.661438
EE'=0
Now we proceed to calculate the segments approximating the arc. Again, we use a right triangle in which the hypotenuse is the segment joining two points on the circumference. The height is the difference between the two vertical segments, and the base is 0.25 for all four segments.
AB=sqrt((AO-BB)^2+0.25^2)=0.252009BC=sqrt((BB-CC)^2+0.25^2)=0.270091CD=sqrt((CC-DD)^2+0.25^2)=0.323042DE=sqrt((DD-0)^2+0.25^2)=0.7071068
giving a total estimation of the arc length
approximation of arc=AB+BC+CD+DE=1.55225

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
this idea is probably a good thing to have a solid understand of. That Cartesian (rect) is the x and y components, of the legs of a triangle and is a way to measure that part of the two leg of the triangle that is made up by those pieces.. while the polar system would measure the hypotenuse of that same triangle with the degrees as a way to place where that hypotenuses goes
the abs value of an imaginary number will give you that distance from the origin to the point.. if you are using that sqrt ( +
) to get the abs. this is the same as the magnitude and can represent a total force. The distance between the origin and the point is that idea of two points.. conveniently we used (0,0) the origin as one of the points.. the other is at the top of the line or the point given by the complex number
Hopefully that helps... :/
