Question

Two arcs of same length of two different circles subtended angles of  25 to the power of ring operator and 75 to the power of ring operator  at their centers respectively. Then the ratio of the radii of the circles is

  1. 3 colon 1
  2. 1 colon 3
  3. 1 colon 2
  4. 2 space colon 1

hintHint:

We know that, s equals R theta [s= arc length, R= radius, theta= angle subtended at the center]. We can solve the question with this equation.

The correct answer is: 3 colon 1


    Step by step solution:
    Given that,
    theta subscript 1 equals 25 degree
    theta subscript 2 equals 75 degree
    It is also given that s subscript 1 equals s subscript 2
    We know that s equals R theta
    s subscript 1 equals space R subscript 1 theta subscript 1
    s subscript 2 equals R subscript 2 theta subscript 2
    s subscript 1 equals s subscript 2
    rightwards double arrow R subscript 1 space end subscript left parenthesis 25 degree right parenthesis equals R subscript 2 left parenthesis 75 degree right parenthesis
    rightwards double arrow R subscript 1 over R subscript 2equals 3 over 1
    rightwards double arrow R subscript 1 colon R subscript 2 equals 3 colon 1 (answer)
    Hence, option(b) is the correct option.
