The arc length of the arc which is intercepted by a central angle of 5π/6 radians is approximately 56.59 yd
How to find the relation between angle subtended by the arc on center, the radius and the arc length?
We have full circumference subtending full angle on the center which is of 360 degrees.
[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]
For this case, the radius of the circle is [tex]r = 21\dfrac{5}{8} \: \rm yd = \dfrac{21 \times 8+5}{8} = \dfrac{178}{8} = 21.625\: yd[/tex]
The angle subtended by arc on the center is [tex]\theta = \dfrac{5\pi}{6} \approx \dfrac{5 \times 3.14}{6} \approx 2.6167 \: \rm radians[/tex]
Thus, the length of the arc is [tex]\theta \times r \: \rm yd[/tex] which is:
[tex]\theta \times r \approx 2.6167 \times 21.625 \approx 56.59 \: \rm yd[/tex]
Thus, the arc length of the arc which is intercepted by a central angle of 5π/6 radians is approximately 56.59 yd (rounded to 2 figures because π had two figures after 3)
