Answer:

(1). 36 inch. , 103° ; (2). 8.9 cm , 44.5 cm² ;

Explanation:

1).

(b). m∠BCA = 1.8 rad. ×
(180)/(\pi )103° ( π ≈
(22)/(7) )

(a). C = 2 π r , the length of arc AB = ( 2 ×
(22)/(7) × 20 ) ÷ 360° × 103.132° ≈ 36 inches

3).

(a). The length of arc AB = ( 2 ×
(22)/(7) × 10 ) ÷ 360° × 51° ≈ 8.9 cm

(b). A = π r² , the area of the sector = (
(22)/(7) × 10² ) ÷ 360° × 51° ≈ 44.5 cm²

Answer:

Question 3)


\stackrel{\frown}{AC}=36\text{ inches}


\angle BCA\approx103^\circ

Question 1)


\stackrel{\frown}{AB}\approx 8.9\text{ cm}\\


A\approx44.5\text{ cm}^2

Explanation:

Question 3)

We are given that the central angle is 1.8 radians and has a radius of 20 inches.

Part A)

The formula for arc length in terms of radians is given by:


s=r\theta

Where s is the arc length, r is the radius, and θ is the angle in radians.

In this case, r is 20 and θ is 1.8. Hence, the arc length is:


\stackrel{\frown}{AC}=(20)(1.8)=36\text{ inches}

Part B)

BCA is the central angle that measures 1.8 radians.

We can convert radians to degrees using the following formula:


\displaystyle d=\theta\cdot(180^\circ)/(\pi)

Where d is the measure in degrees, and θ is the measure in radians.

Therefore:


\displaystyle d=1.8\cdot(180^\circ)/(\pi)\approx103.1324\approx103^\circ

Question 1)*

Part A)

We will use the arc length formula in degrees given by:


\displaystyle s=2\pi r\cdot (\theta^\circ)/(360)

Where r is the radius and θ is the angle measured in degrees.

We have a radius of 10 centimeters and a central angle of 51°. Therefore, our arc length is:


\displaystyle \stackrel{\frown}{AB}=2\pi(10)\cdot(51)/(360)=20\pi\cdot(51)/(360)\approx8.9\text{ cm}

Part B)

We will use the formula for the area of a sector in degrees given by:


\displaystyle A=\pi r^2\cdot(\theta^\circ)/(360)

So, we will substitute 10 for r and 51 for θ. Hence, the area of the sector is:


\displaystyle A=\pi (10)^2\cdot (51)/(360)=100\pi\cdot(51)/(360)\approx44.5\text{ cm}^2

*Notes:

For this question, it is possible and completely fine for us to convert 51° to radians and then use the formulas in terms of radians.
