Answer:

1.99 radians or 114.02°

Explanation:

You want the measure of a circular arc of length 23.88 inches and radius 12 inches.

Arc length

The equation relating angle, radius, and arc length is ...

s = rθ . . . . . . s = arc length, r = radius, θ = central angle in radians

Solving for θ gives ...

θ = s/r = (23.88 in)/(12 in) = 1.99 radians

The corresponding arc measure in degrees is ...

1.99 radians × 180°/π ≈ 114.02°

The measure of arc AB is 1.99 radians, about 114.02°.
