Answer:

27°

Explanation:

arc length = circumference × fraction of circle

let x be the central angle, then

2πr ×
(x)/(360) = 6.6

2 ×
(22)/(7) × 14 ×
(x)/(360) = 6.6

88 ×
(x)/(360) = 6.6 ( multiply both sides by 360 )

88x = 2376 ( divide both sides by 88 )

x = 27

Thus central angle is 27°

Answer:

STEP 1: Find the circumference:

Circumference = 2πr

Circumference = 2π(14) = 28π cm

............................................................................................

STEP 2: Find the length of the arc:

Length of the arc = 36/360 x 28π

Length of the arc = 8.8 cm

.............................................................................................

Answer: The length of the arc is 8.8 cm
