Respuesta :
Arc length = radius * central angle (in radians)
Arc length = 9 yards * PI/6
Arc length = 4.7124
Arc length = 9 yards * PI/6
Arc length = 4.7124
Answer:
the arc length is, 4.71 yd
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula for arc length is given by:
[tex]l = r \theta[/tex]
where,
r is the radius of the circle
[tex]\theta[/tex] is the central angle in radian.
As per the statement:
In a circle with a radius of 9 yd, an arc is intercepted by a central angle of π/6 radians.
⇒r = 9 yd and [tex]\theta = \frac{\pi}{6}[/tex]
Substitute the given values in [1] we have;
And use 3.14 for π .
[tex]l = 9 \cdot \frac{3.14}{6} = \frac{28.26}{6} = 4.71[/tex] yd
Therefore, the arc length is, 4.71 yd
