Int he accompanying diagram of circle O, the measure of ARC RS is 64 degrees what is m < RST?
|dw:1398148644384:dw|
arc length = radius * central angle (in radians) RTS is an inscribed angle angle O is the central angle Angle RTS is exactly 1/2 of the central angle. The problem starts that the LENGTH of arc RS is 64 degrees. Shouldn't a length be stated in linear measure and not in angular measure? Due to the 64 degree arc, I can't work anymore on this problem/
is the answer 16?
@Hero can you help me out here>
@ganeshie8
Does it mention whether chords RT = ST ?
nope
Are there any tic marks through RT and ST?
nope i showed everything thats on the question
You can at least find the length of arc STR arc STR = 360 - 64 = 360 - 60 - 4 = 300 - 4 = 296
what can i do from there?
If we assume RS = ST, then arc TS = 296/2
would you consider rts to be centered?
so arc TS = 148 arc RST = 148 + 64
O is the center
