A circular jogging track is being designed so that one complete lap around the track is one mile long. What should the radius of the track be to the nearest foot? (one mile equals five thousand two hundred eighty feet) two thousand six hundred forty feet one thousand seven hundred sixty feet one thousand six hundred eighty-two feet eight hundred forty-one feet
They want the circumference of the track to be 1 mile. First convert that to feet. then plug it into the circumference formula
ok thx
Are you going to try working it out or what?
yes i am right now :\
Lol didn't mean to come off as angry. Lemme know when you need some help
lol ok
so you need to x or /
C = 2 * pi * r You're being asked to find the radius in feet but given a mile circumference.
would it be 841 feet?
5280 =2pir ---- -- 2 2 2640 = pir r = 840.338099525 yeah, good job
thx for the help
