Answer:
Arc length MK = 15.45 units (nearest hundredth)
Arc measure = 58.24°
Step-by-step explanation:
Calculate the measure of the angle KLN (as this equals m∠KLM which is the measure of arc MK)
ΔKNL is a right triangle, so we can use the cos trig ratio to find ∠KLM:
where:
is the angle
- A is the side adjacent the angle
- H is the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle)
Given:
- A = LN = 8
- H = KL = 15.2
Therefore, the measure of arc MK = 58.24° (nearest hundredth)
Given:
- r = 15.2
- ∠KLM = 58.24313614°
