do you recall that an angle on the rim of a circle is half the arclength?

|dw:1338295068777:dw|

So it'd be 133 degrees?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

that would be the angle of C we want the other part of the circle recall that a circle is 360 around and you know 266 of it, so wahts left?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

94 degrees?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

94 is good, now half of that will be the angle of E

OpenStudy (anonymous):

47?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

47 is half of 94, yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So the answer is 47?
