how do you find the measure of an arc of a cirlce?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

circumference really

OpenStudy (amistre64):

radian angle * radius

OpenStudy (amistre64):

for the whole thing we get 2pi r for part of it; just replace 2pi with the radian angle

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but the radius is not given thats why im confused

OpenStudy (amistre64):

cant read your mind lol whats the problem and can you send a pic?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmm let me try one minute

OpenStudy (anonymous):

there its number two

OpenStudy (amistre64):

well, the r is gonna be some scaled version of sqrt(2); so id say: r = t sqrt(2) to cover all the bases; what have you been using to determine a radius with?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

lol.... how about this route; the arc length is equal to the angle degree that it is infront of

OpenStudy (amistre64):

since that angle is 90 degrees; the arc length is 90 degrees; or pi/2 radians

OpenStudy (anonymous):

we were using similar angles to find the missing lengths but sences there are no #s given im not sure what to do

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so then arcLM would also be 90?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

its; pi r/2 if it aint gonna give number than thats the best you can do

OpenStudy (amistre64):

yes; 90 degrees

OpenStudy (anonymous):

awsome thank you!

OpenStudy (amistre64):

yw :)
