Answer:

Blank1: A) 12pi

Blank2: A) 16

Explanation:

We know that,


\text{Arc length}=\text{Radius }* \text{Central angle (in rad)}=r\cdot \theta

As given in the question, central angle is
(3\pi)/(4) radians

A-

Putting radius as 16 cm, we get


\text{Arc length}=16\cdot (3\pi)/(4)=12\pi

B-

Putting radius as 24 cm, we get


\text{Arc length}=24\cdot (3\pi)/(4)=18\pi

C-

Putting radius as 3 cm, we get


\text{Arc length}=3\cdot (3\pi)/(4)=(9\pi)/(4)
