Answer:
The measure of the center angle is 0.6 radians
Step-by-step explanation:
Mathematically, the length of an arc can be calculated using;
L = theta/360 * 2 * pi * r
where theta is the central angle
In this case, theta = ? , pi = 22/7 and r is 13
cm, length of arc is 8 cm
So we have ;
8 = theta/360 * 2 * pi * 13
360 * 7 * 8 = theta * 2 * 22 * 13
20,160 = 572 theta
theta = 20,160/572
theta = 35.24
let us convert this to radian measure
Mathematically, 1 degree = 0.0175 radian
Thus 35.24 degrees will be 35.24 * 0.0175 = 0.62 radians
To the nearest tenth, this is 0.6 radians
