A gazebo is located in the center of a large circular lawn with a diameter of 300 feet. straight paths extend from the gazebo to a sidewalk around the lawn. if two of the paths form a 45 angle, how far would you have to travel around the sidewalk to get from one path to the other? Round your answer to the nearest foot

Answer: 118

Explanation:

1.To solve this problem you must apply the formula for calculate the arc length, which is:

arc length=2πr(central angle/360)

r=300 feet/2

r=150 feet

central angle=45°

2. When you substitute the values, you obtain

arclength=118
