We need to find the length of the Arc LNM.

Let's find length of Arc LM.

The length of an arc is given by the formula:


A=(\theta)/(360)*2\pi r

Where

Theta is the angle subtended by the arc

r is the radius of the circle

For the given circle,

Radius is 3

Angle subtended is 70 degrees

Let's substitute into formula and find the Arc Length of LM (A):


\begin{gathered} A=(\theta)/(360)*2\pi r \\ A=(70)/(360)*2\pi(3) \\ A=(7)/(36)*6\pi \\ A=(7\pi)/(6) \end{gathered}

The total Arc Length is circumference, which is 2*pi*r

So, it will be:


2\pi(3)=6\pi

We know:
