Question

Below is a sector of a circle with an arc length of 6 pi cm and a radius of 10 cm. Find the size of the angle labeled x.

  1. 91°    
  2. 108°    
  3. 95°    
  4. 86°    

hintHint:

Arc length = fraction numerator theta over denominator 360 end fraction cross times 2 cross times pi cross times r

The correct answer is: 108°


    Correct attempt to form an equation for the arc length
    6 pi equals fraction numerator x over denominator 360 end fraction cross times 2 cross times pi cross times 10
    Attempt to solve equation for x, with one step completed correctly
    6 = fraction numerator x over denominator 360 end fraction cross times 20
    0.3 = fraction numerator x over denominator 360 end fraction
    =108
