I am confused too :) What's the topic?

anonymous · Answer

Circles: Circumferences and Arc Length

swissgirl · Answer

hmm Not sure what n stands for exactly

anonymous · Answer

me either

swissgirl · Answer

What does the question ask you to find?

anonymous · Answer

thats all it says is the equation :/

anonymous · Answer

do you have any idea what does the L stand for? Length?

anonymous · Answer

yes L is length

anonymous · Answer

Have you tried solving just for L? The result you get is:$$L=\frac{7 \pi}{180}$$Have you got any clue as to what n could be about?

anonymous · Answer

nope, i have no clue at all as of what i am doing

anonymous · Answer

lol.. is this the whole description of the problem at hand? Maybe there's more text to it, that could be very helpful..

anonymous · Answer

nope thats all i got, that why im confused

anonymous · Answer

Ok, there's one possibility and this is just hypothetical. It just came to me, I think that it could be asking for the angle in degrees. If that is the case, you would have to multiply this by$$\frac{180}{\pi}$$so when you multiply the result, L, by that factor you get,$$\frac{7 \pi}{180} \times \frac{180}{\pi} = 7$$This could mean the answer is A. But I can't assure you, because, well arc-lengths are not in degrees.

Have you been doing some like this in class? The conversion and stuff..
