@satellite73 you're always a huge help. If you have the time can you check this out?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so what is the arc length formula?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

s=r(theta)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{s}{r}=\frac{\pi}{3}\] because that is how you measure the angle

OpenStudy (anonymous):

solve \[\frac{8.1}{r}=\frac{\pi}{3}\] for \(r\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wow that's it? thank you so much

OpenStudy (anonymous):

would it be 7.73?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i don't know i didn't do it it will be \[r=\frac{3\times 8.1}{\pi}\]whatever that is

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah looks good http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=3*8.1%2Fpi
