A circle has an arc whose measure is 80° and whose length is 88π, What is the diameter of the circle?

Respuesta :

Answer:396

Step-by-step explanation:Arc length = radius * angle in radians

you know radius = Diameter/2 = D/2

80 deg = (80pi/180) rad

then,

88 pi = (D/2) * (80 pi /180)

sloving for D

D = 396

The diameter of the circle which measures is 80° and length arc is 88π is 396

Length of arc formula

length of arc = ∅ / 360 × 2πr

where

r = radius

∅ = centre angle = 80°

length of arc = 80 / 360 ×2πr

length of arc = 88π

Therefore,

88π = 16 / 36 πr

cross multiply

88π × 36 = 16πr

3168π = 16πr

divide both sides by 16π

198 = r

Recall

diameter = 2(radius)

Therefore,

diameter of the circle = 2 × 198

diameter of the circle = 396
