Answer:

Arc length = 7.33 inches

Explanation:

The formula for arc length is s = rθ, where s = arc length, r = radius, and θ is the central angle in radians.

We are given that the radius is 7, and the central angle is 60 degrees, which means we have to convert the central angle to radians and then plug in the values to solve:

π radians = 180 degrees

60 degrees * (π radians/180 degrees) = π/3 radians

r = 7; θ = π/3

s = 7*π/3

s = 7π/3

s = 7.33
