how can i find the perimeter of the shaded region? any formula for the arc?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

This is very similar to the last question you asked. Where do you get stuck?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

formulas.. :|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i'm confused if all forulas are same or not

OpenStudy (anonymous):

about the arcs

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I hope now you remember the formula for the perimeter of the circle

OpenStudy (anonymous):

make use of symmetry..it's helpful

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yep, pi(diameter)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yep that is right. What fraction of the circle is the arc you have here?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1/4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The other 2 sides are just str8 lines

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yep.. which is equal to 20

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can you find the solution now? You have written all the necessary information down already

OpenStudy (anonymous):

pi(diameter) is correct for the circle but get used to 2pi(radius), that is a more common notation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

should i use the formul.. l+ 2(pi)(r)(theta/360)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i mean l= 2(pi)(r)(theta/360)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You do not need that. Just forget the above 2 lines.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You need the perimeter of the circle: 2pi(radius) and the fraction 1/4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh, just that? to get the arc length?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yep

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That arc length has 1/4 of the perimeter of a full circle

OpenStudy (anonymous):

my answer is.. 35.71.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you so much:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yep that is it
