Find the radius of the circle in which a central angle of 60° intercepts an arc of length 37.4 cm (use π = 22/7).

$\huge{\underline{\mathtt{\red{A}\pink{N}\green{S}\blue{W}\purple{E}\orange{R}}}}$

Given,

Length of the arc = l = 37.4 cm

Central angle = θ = 60° = 60π/180 radian = π/3 radians

We know that,

r = l/θ

= (37.4) * (π / 3)

= (37.4) / [22 / 7 * 3]

= 35.7 cm

Given,

Length of the arc = l = 37.4 cm

Central angle = θ = 60° = 60π/180 radian = π/3 radians

We know that,

r = l/θ

= (37.4) * (π / 3)

= (37.4) / [22 / 7 * 3]

= 35.7 cm
