Arc length has a formula that is similar to arc measure, but arc length is expressed in inches or meters or miles, etc., whereas measure is expressed in degrees, like an angle. The formula for each take this into account. Since the arc length is part of the length of the outside of the circle, the formula includes the circumference for a circle.

, where theta is the degree measure of the central angle intersecting the arc you're looking for, and d is the diameter of the circle. Our formula would look like this with the info we have:

which can be simplified to

which can be simplified even further to

. And that's your answer!
For this question the answer would be x=-3 and x=-2
The formula for distance is equal to:
d = v * t
where d is distance, v is velocity or speed, and t is
time
Since the distance travelled by the two airplane is
similar, therefore we can create the initial equation:
v1 * t1 = v2 * t2
We know that v1 = 496, and v2 = 558 so:
496 t1 = 558 t2
or
x = 558 t2 / 496
We also know that airplane 1 travelled 30 minutes (0.5
hours) earlier than airplane 2, therefore:
x = t2 + 0.5
Hence,
496 (t2 + 0.5) = 558 t2
496 t2 + 248 = 558 t2
t2 = 4 hours
x = t2 + 0.5 = 4 + 0.5
x = 4.5 hours
So the equation is:
x = 558 t2 / 496
And the first plane travelled:
x = 4.5 hours
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
In the right triangle DEF
