Respuesta :

The equation to be used is

Area of sector = 0.5 x Radius of Circle * Length of Arc

Thus,

252 in2 = 0.5 x 12 in * Length of Arc

Length of Arc = 42 inches

 

I hope I was able to answer question. Have a good day.

Answer:

The arc length is 42 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hint-

[tex]\text{Arc length}=r\theta\\\\\text{Sector area}=\dfrac{1}{2}\theta r^2[/tex]

when θ is radians.

Given here,

Sector area = 252 in²

Radius = 12 in

Putting the values,

[tex]\Rightarrow \text{Sector area}=\dfrac{1}{2}\theta r^2[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow 252=\dfrac{1}{2}\theta (12)^2[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow 252=\dfrac{1}{2}\theta (144)[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow \theta=\dfrac{252\times2}{144}[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow \theta=3.5\ rad[/tex]

Then the arc length will be,

[tex]\text{Arc length}=12\times 3.5=42\ in[/tex]
