Question

Examine the diagram of circle C. Points Q, V, and W lie on circle C. Given that m∠VCW=97∘, what is the length of VW⌢?

Answer 1

`(97pi)/(18) m`

Explanation:

==>Given:

radius (r) = 10 m

m<VCW = 97°

==>Required:

Length of arc VW

==>Solution:

Formula for length VW is given as 2πr(θ/360)

Using the formula, Arc length = 2πr(θ/360), find the arc length VW in the given circle

Where,

θ = 97°

r = radius of the circle = 10 m

Thus,

Arc length VW = 2*π*10(97/360)

Arc length VW = 20π(97/360)

Arc length VW = π(97/18)

Arc length VW = 97π/18 m

Our answer is,

`(97pi)/(18) m`
