Answer:

The length of the arc is 14.13 meter.

Explanation:

Given : A circle has a radius of 5. An arc in this circle has a central angle of 162º.

To find : What is the length of the arc?

Solution :

The circumference of circle is
C=\pi d

Radius is r=5

Diameter is d=10

Circumference is
C=10\pi

The angle is 162º.

The length of the arc is given by,


l=\frac{\text{Central angle}}{360}* C

The length of the arc is


l=(162)/(360)* 10\pi


l=0.45* 10\pi


l=14.13

Therefore, the length of the arc is 14.13 meter.
