Question

A circle with circumference 6 has an are with a 20° central angle.

What is the length of the arc?

Answer 1

The length of the arc would be 1.05

Answer 2

AHH! Geometry!

Thanks!

The arc has a length of 1/3

Explanation:

So you first start off with this:

`(20)/(360)`

This is because a circle is 360 degrees, and we are talking about a 20 degree arc.

Simplifying, we get
`(1)/(18)`

So then, you multiply the circumference with this "factor"

`(1)/(18) *6=(6)/(18)=(1)/(3)`

Hope this helps!
