Question

The figure below shows part of a circle, with central angle as marked. What part ofthe full circle does the figure represent? Express your answer as a fraction in simplestterms.Answer:220°Submit Answer*****

Answer 1

11/18

Step-by-step explanation

The central angle of a full circle measures 360°. In this case, we have only a part of the circle, whose central angle measures 220°. TO find what part of the full circle this figure represents, we have to divide the angle measure by 360,

`(220)/(360)`

Both numerator and denominator are divisible by 20 - note that they are both divisible by 2 and by 10, so to simplify this faction we have to divide by 20 both parts,

`((220)/(20))/((360)/(20))=(11)/(18)`

Hence, this figure represents 11/18 of the full circle.
