Really need help with these math questions!! Can someone please help me?


1. A circle has a radius of 5.4 m.

What is the exact length of an arc formed by a central angle measuring 60°?

---

2. A circle has a radius of 4 ft.

What is the area of the sector formed by a central angle measuring 5π/2? (Write answer as decimal.)

Respuesta :

1) Arc length = radius * central angle (radians)
or we could say 60 degrees is (1/6) of a circle.  So it would be (1/6) of the circumference.  = 2*PI*radius / 6 = 2*PI*5.4 =
= 5.6548667765 meters

2) Arc length = radius * central angle (radians)

The central angle 5*PI/2 = 450 degrees (1.25 circles). So that sector area would be double for 25% of it.

The length of the arc formed inside a circle and the area of the sector depends on the radius and central angle formed inside the circle.

Part A: The length of the arc is 5.652 m.

Part B: The area of the sector is 62.8 square feet.

What is the area of the sector inside a circle?

A circle sector is the portion of a circle that is enclosed by two radii and an arc, where the smaller area is known as the minor sector and the larger being the major sector.

Part A:

Given that the radius r of the circle is 5.4 m and the central angle is 60 degrees.

The length of the arc is calculated as given below.

[tex]s = r\theta[/tex]

Where s is the length of the arc, and [tex]\theta[/tex] is the central angle.

[tex]s = 5.4 \times 60 \times \dfrac {\pi}{180} \;\rm radians[/tex]

[tex]s = 5.652 \;\rm m[/tex]

Hence we can conclude that the length of the arc is 5.652 m.

Part B:

Given that the radius r of the circle is 4 ft. and the central angle is 5π/2 degrees.

The area of the sector is calculated as given below.

[tex]A = \dfrac {\theta}{2\pi}\times \pi r^2[/tex]

Where A is the area of the sector, and [tex]\theta[/tex] is the central angle.

[tex]A = \dfrac {5\pi}{2} \times \dfrac {1}{2\pi} \times \pi 4^2[/tex]

[tex]A = \dfrac {5}{4} \times \pi \times 16[/tex]

[tex]A = 62.8 \;\rm ft^2[/tex]

Hence we can conclude that the area of the sector is 62.8 square feet.
