The arc length
(\(s\)) of a circle with a radius of 4.4 yards and an angle of
\(7\pi/4\) radians is approximately 24.19 yards, calculated using the formula
\(s = r \cdot \theta\).

I assume you want to calculate the arc length based on the given radius and angle. The formula for arc length (s) is given by:


\[ s = r \cdot \theta \]

where:

-
\( s \) is the arc length,

-
\( r \) is the radius, and

-
\( \theta \) is the angle in radians.

If you have the angle in degrees, you need to convert it to radians using the conversion factor
\( (\pi)/(180) \).

Let's use the formula to calculate the arc length:

Given:

- Radius,
\( r = 4.4 \) yd

- Angle,
\( \theta = 7\pi/4 \) radians


\[ s = 4.4 \cdot (7\pi)/(4) \]

Now, let's calculate it:


\[ s \approx 4.4 \cdot (7 \cdot 3.14159)/(4) \]


\[ s \approx 4.4 \cdot (21.99113)/(4) \]


\[ s \approx 4.4 \cdot 5.49778 \]


\[ s \approx 24.190792 \, \text{yd} \]

So, the arc length
(\( s \)) is approximately
\( 24.19 \) yards.
