Answer:
The Ratio is 5:4
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the radius of the 2 circles be R1 and R2. Let the length of the arc be L.
We know that,
360°= 2π
60°=π/3 radian 75°=5π/12 radian
We know that,
theta = L/r
or L=r*theta
L= R1π/3 .............................(1)
L= R2*5π/12 ............................(2)
Equating equation (1) and (2), we get,
R1π/3 = R2*5π/3
On cancelling 3 and 12, and π on both sides we get,
R1 = R2*5/4
R1/R2 = 5/4
R1:R2 = 5:4
