Answer:

6.28

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of arc which subtends an angle $\alpha$ at the center of a circle is given by $\alpha r$ where r is the radius of circle.

______________________________

given

the central angle of arc is 120°

$\pi = 180\\120 = (\pi /180)* 120\\120 = 2/3\pi$

we will use value of $\pi$ as 3.14

r = 3

Length of this arc is

$2/3( \pi *3) = 2\pi \\=2*3.14 = 6.28$

The length of the arc to the nearest hundredth of unit is 6.28

Questlon 4 of 10

Kisachek [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the midpoint the formulas

x=x1+x2/2 and y=y1+y2/2 are used

in this case x1 is 5,x2 is 5,y1 is 4 and y2 is -3

therefore

x=5+5/2.

=10/2

=5

y=4+(-3)/2

=1/2

The ropes on either side of a swing are 1.9 m long. If a child swings through a arc length of 0.9 Determine the angle (in radian

Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

theta = 9/19 radians or approximately .4737 radians

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for arc length is

S = r theta

where theta is in radians. Lets put in what we know. The radius would be 1.9 since the ropes would be the radius.

.9 = 1.9 theta

Divide by 1.9 on each side.

.9/1.9 = theta

theta = 9/19 radians

or in decimal form it is approximately .4737 radians

Hong rented a truck for one day. There was a base fee of $20.95, and there was an additional charge of 90 cents for each mile dr

Goryan [66]

Answer: Hong drove the truck for 294 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let m represent the number of miles for which he drove the truck.

There was a base fee of $20.95, and there was an additional charge of 90 cents for each mile driven. It means that the expression for the cost of driving the truck for m miles in a day is

20.95 + 0.9m

Hong had to pay $285.55 when he returned the truck. It means that

20.95 + 0.9m = 285.55

0.9m = 285.55 - 20.95

0.9m = 264.6

m = 264.6/0.9

m = 294 miles
