khalil has a circular cake that he plans to share equally betweeb himself and 5 friends. if tge cake is 8 inched in a diameter, what will be the length of the arc of each slice of cake.

Respuesta :

Answer:

4.2

Step-by-step explanation:

It would be 8/2 which gets 4 and put the .2 4.2

Length of the arc of each slice of cake is equals to 5.024inches.

What is length of the arc?

" Length of the arc is defined as the distance between any two points as a part  of the circumference of the circle."

Formula used

Length of the arc =  radius × central angle of the arc

l = r × θ

According to the question,

Number of friends = 5

Diameter of the cake = 8inches

Shape of the cake is circular.

Therefore angle formed = 360°

Angle for each piece of cake = [tex]\frac{360}{5}[/tex]

                                                 = 72°

Radius of the cake = [tex]\frac{diameter }{2}[/tex]

                               = [tex]\frac{8}{2}[/tex]

                               = 4 inches

Substitute the value in the formula to get the length of the arc we get,

L = 4 × 72 × [tex]\frac{\pi }{180}[/tex]

  = 5.024inches

Hence, length of the arc of each slice of cake is equals to 5.024inches.
