You just cross multiply and then simplify
For this answer it is:
12 inches = 36 feet
Answer: The angle through which the pendulum travels =
.
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula: Length of arc:
, where r= radius ( in radians) ,
= central angle.
Given: Length of pendulum (radius) = 45 cm
Length of arc= 27.5 cm
Put these values in the formula, we get

In degrees ,
![\theta=\dfrac{11}{18}\times\dfrac{180}{\pi}=\dfrac{110\times7}{22} \ \ \ \ [\pi=\dfrac{22}{7}]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Ctheta%3D%5Cdfrac%7B11%7D%7B18%7D%5Ctimes%5Cdfrac%7B180%7D%7B%5Cpi%7D%3D%5Cdfrac%7B110%5Ctimes7%7D%7B22%7D%20%5C%20%5C%20%5C%20%5C%20%20%20%20%5B%5Cpi%3D%5Cdfrac%7B22%7D%7B7%7D%5D)

Hence, the angle through which the pendulum travels =
.
2ab + a^3 + 5a^2b^2 - 2b^3
= a^3 - 2b^3 + 2ab + 5a^2b^2 (this is the expression in standard form)
