Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

Formula to be used to calculate the length of an arc,

Length of arc =
(\theta)/(360)(2\pi r)

Here, θ = Angle subtended at the center by the arc

r = radius of the circle

By substituting values in the formula,

s =
(150)/(360)(2\pi )(42)


(s)/(2* 42\pi )=(150)/(360)((2* 24\pi )/(2* 24\pi ) )


(s)/(84 \pi )=(150)/(360)

Therefore, Option B will be the answer.
