A survey about the student government program at a school finds the following results.

190 students like the program
135 students think the program is unnecessary
220 students plan on running for student government next year.

If a circle graph were made from this data, what would the measure of the central angle be for the group that likes the program? Round your answer to the nearest whole number.

Respuesta :

I think you get 35% by first adding up everyone that was surveyed so 

190+135+220= 545 

Next you would divide 190 by the total number of people surveyed so 

190/545= 0.348... 

Since there is an 8 next to the 4 you would round up therefore getting 35% 

I think that is how they got 35%

The measure of the central angle for the group that likes the program would be of 2 radians approx

What is the relation between angle subtended by the arc, the radius and the arc length?

[tex]2\pi^c = 360^\circ = \text{Full circumference}[/tex]

The superscript 'c' shows angle measured is in radians.

If radius of the circle is of r units, then:

[tex]1^c \: \rm covers \: \dfrac{circumference}{2\pi} = \dfrac{2\pi r}{2\pi} = r\\\\or\\\\\theta^c \: covers \:\:\: r \times \theta \: \rm \text{units of arc}[/tex]

Now, for this case, the circle graph(referring to what is often called pie graph) would be such that:

190 students, 135 students and 220 students will fill the full circle.

We will use the same concept as discussed above.
Full circle subtends [tex]2\pi[/tex] radians on the center.

The full arc is of [tex]2\pi r[/tex] units length.

Total students are 190 + 135 + 220 = 545 students.

Each student assumingly taking up uniform space in area of circle, thus also dividing whole circle in 545 equal slices, from center to circumference.

Thus, each arc would be of length [tex]2\pi r/545[/tex] units length.

Then that means 190 students (the count of students liking the program) would have the length of the arc covered as [tex]190 \times \dfrac{2\pi r}{545}[/tex] units.

Let this makes angle [tex]\theta[/tex] radians  on center. Then, we have:

Length of the arc = [tex]r \times \theta[/tex] units

[tex]190 \times \dfrac{2\pi r}{545} = r \times \theta\\\\\theta = \dfrac{380\pi}{545} \approx 2.1904 \: \rm (in \: \rm radians) \approx 2^c[/tex]

Thus, the measure of the central angle for the group that likes the program would be of 2 radians approx
