Answer:
θ = 1.5 radians ≈ 85.9°
Explanation:
The arc length in terms of central angle and radius is ...
s = rθ
where θ is the central angle in radians. Here, we want to find θ, so we have ...
θ = s/r . . . . divide by r
For the given numbers, ...
θ = (6 cm)/(4 cm) = 3/2 = 1.5 . . . radians
I radian is 180°/π, so 3/2 radians is ...
(3/2)(180°/π) = 270°/π ≈ 85.9°
