Question

Find the arc length of AB⌢. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Answer 1

Answer:

3.14 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The arc AB is the minor arc of the given circle. The length l of the minor arc of a circle is given as

l = Ф°/360° × 2πr

where

Ф is the angle of the arc at the center of the circle

r is the radius of the circle and

π is a mathematical constant equivalent to 22/7

r = 8/2 = 4 ft

Hence

l = 45°/360° × 2 × 22/7 × 4

= 22/7 ft

= 3.14 ft
