circumference = 2*PI*radius
circumference = 25.1327 inches

110 / 360 = 0.30555

arc length = 0.30555 *
25.1327 inches

arc length = 7.6793 inches

Answer:

Arc length = 7.675 inches.

Explanation:

Given : radius of circle is 4 inches subtended by a central angle that measures 110°.

To find : An arc in a circle.

Solution : Radius = 4 inches .

Central angle = 110

Arc = 2 pi * radius
((central\ angle)/(360)).

Plugging the values

Arc length = 2 * 3.15 * 4
((110)/(360)).

Arc length = 7.675 inches.

Therefore, Arc length = 7.675 inches.
