@peachpi

OpenStudy (alekos):

the formula to use is s=rθ where s is the arc length, r is the radius and θ is the angle in radians

OpenStudy (anonymous):

whaaaat? @alekos

OpenStudy (alekos):

just convert 38 degrees to radians and plug in the values

OpenStudy (alekos):

radius = 1/2 the diameter

OpenStudy (anonymous):

How do you convert 38 degrees into radians

OpenStudy (anonymous):

radius is 10

OpenStudy (alekos):

degrees to radians => multiply by π/180

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so 38* 3.14/180

OpenStudy (alekos):

yeah thats it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

6.62 ? as the final answer

OpenStudy (alekos):

yep
