@rvc

I need your help :/

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i need medals

rvc (rvc):

yes @nopen

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it's part c

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I got the answer for a and b

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Part a.) is OC = OT - CT = R- r

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Part b.) is R*sin*theta = r(1+ sin theta)

rvc (rvc):

im extremely sorry gtg now

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

we can write this: \[\Large \begin{gathered} 21 = 2R + R2\theta = 2R + 2R\arcsin \left( {\frac{3}{4}} \right) = \hfill \\ \hfill \\ = 2R\left\{ {1 + \arcsin \left( {\frac{3}{4}} \right)} \right\} \hfill \\ \end{gathered} \]

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

since: \[\Large ATB = R2\theta \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yea I did that but my problem is why am I to taking the 1 with the given angle?

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

by definition of radians, we have: \[\Large L = \alpha R\] |dw:1436029827922:dw|

@dan815 your answer is wrong =_=

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Michele_Laino I do remember that arc length formula but what I'm asking is that, if we are given that O is sin theta = 3/4 why are we taking the 1?

OpenStudy (dan815):

what is the answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2.43

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Michele_Laino what you've written in your answer is exactly the same thing that is written in the solution bank I simply wanna know why you talking (1 + arcsin(3/4) instead of just arcsin3/4?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

*are taking

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

since I have factored out the quantity 2R

OpenStudy (dan815):

hey michele can you tell me what's wrong in my method, i cant find it
