Answer:

measure of arc = 65°

length of arc = 5.67

area of sector = 14.18

Explanation:

The measure of an arc is equal to its central angle. This means that the measure of arc AB is 65°.

The length of an arc can be found by using the circumference as well as the central angle. The formula for the length of an arc is:

x/360 * 2πr

With x being the central angle, we plug in 65 for x and solve. We also know that the radius is 5.

65/360 * 2π(5)

65/360 * 10π

65/360 * 31.415....

≈ 5.67

The length of arc AB is 5.67.

To find the area of an arc, we also use a similar formula, which includes x/360, but instead of the circumference we find the area of part of the circle.

x/360 * πr²

65/360 * π(5)²

65/360 * 25π

65/360 * 78.53975....

≈ 14.18

The area of the sector is equal to 14.18
