Question

Using the picture above what is the arc length of AB to the nearest hundredths?

Answer 1

Length of arc AB = 1.57 yds

Explanation:

Given:

Central angle (θ) = 30°

Radius (r) = 3 yds

Required:

Length of arc AB approximated to the nearest hundredths

Solution:

Length of arc = θ/360 * 2πr

Length of arc AB = 30/360*2*π*3

Length of arc AB = 1.57079633

Length of arc AB = 1.57 yds (nearest hundredths)
