hartnn (hartnn):
you mean length of major arc KM ??
becaus minor arc KM is already given to be 16pi
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes
hartnn (hartnn):
good, then radius = KM =18
can you find the circumference ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
113.1

hartnn (hartnn):
keep your answer in terms of pi
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[36\pi\]
hartnn (hartnn):
yes,
out of this 36pi
minor arc KM has 16 pi
how much is left for major arc KM ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[20\pi\]
hartnn (hartnn):
thats correct :)

@hartnn im confused my answer choices are the following
A.50.24 degrees
B.80 degrees
C.160 degrees
D.320 degrees
hartnn (hartnn):
lets use the formula,
\(s = r \theta \\ 16\pi = 18 \theta \)
find theta and convert it to degrees
hartnn (hartnn):
to convert a radian angle into degrees, multiply it by \(180/\pi \)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so \[18\theta\] to radians?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i mean degrees

hartnn (hartnn):
no,
\(16\pi = 18 \theta \\ \theta = 16\pi /18 = ...\)
that will give you angle in radians.
then convert it to degrees
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok i got 160 degrees
hartnn (hartnn):
yep, correct.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
thanks
