Hiiiii
According to the question,
The perimeter of arc will be = 20cm
Angle substended at the centre of the circle = 60°
Therefore,
We will use the formula,
theta/360° × 2πr. = circumference of arc
So,
60°/360° × 2×22/7×r = 20
1/6 × 2 × 22/7 × r = 20
r = 11×7×6/44
r = 7×6/4
r = 7×3/2
r = 10.5cm
So, radius of circle is 10.5 cm

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that the length of the wire is 20 cm.
When it is bent in the form of an arc, it forms a part of the circumference of an imaginary circle.
And the formula of the length of an arc is {(given angle)/360}* 2*pi*r
So by putting the values we get that
(60/360) *2*(22/7)*r = 20cm
r = (20*360*7)/(60*2*22)
r = 19.1 cm (approximately)
