assuming the angle is in radians.... you should say so.

r =6cm, diameter = 12 cm and circum = 12π
arc length = circum(angle/2π)
arc length = 12π(2π/5)(1/2π) = 12π/5 = 7.54

Hope I helped :)

Answer:

Arc length = 7.53 cm

Explanation:

We have given that : Radius = 6 cm

and given Angle =
\theta=(2\pi )/(5)

We have to find: The Arc length(A)

Solution: The formula of arc length is given by,

Arc length(A) = radius × angle(in radian)


A= 6*(2\pi )/(5)


A=(12\pi )/(5)

A= 7.53 cm
