Answer:


\boxed{\textbf{26.9 m}}

Explanation:

The formula for the arc (s) of a circle is


s = r\theta * \frac{\pi  }{180^{^(\circ)}}

where θ is measured in degrees.

Data:

r = 11.4 m

θ = 135°

Calculation:


s = \text{11.4 m} * 135^{^(\circ)}*\frac{\pi}{180^{^(\circ)}} = \textbf{26.9 m}\\\\\text{The length of the arc is }\boxed{\textbf{26.9 m}}
