Point C is the center of the circle. If angle ACB measures ( 1/2 x+6) and arc AB measures (x+1), find x

OpenStudy (k.binks):

OpenStudy (arindameducationusc):

use theta= length of arc/radius, if radius given

OpenStudy (anonymous):

need more ino

OpenStudy (anonymous):

info

OpenStudy (anonymous):

whats the radius

OpenStudy (k.binks):

That's it, that's all I was given. No radius or diameter

OpenStudy (arindameducationusc):

okay... hmmm....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

um......

OpenStudy (k.binks):

There has to be an answer, there is multiple questions on this assignment just like this. So it's not a typo with missing information

OpenStudy (arindameducationusc):

@iambatman

OpenStudy (arindameducationusc):

Okay tell me the options

OpenStudy (arindameducationusc):

Is the x in terms of radius?

OpenStudy (k.binks):

I have no idea, there are no options. Its a written response question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

:T

What class is this? Calculus, Pre-Calculus?

Every which way I look at it seems to need more information...... I want to know if this can be solved my self and how.....

OpenStudy (k.binks):

This is algebra 1. I called a math teacher I know and she says to set them equal to each other. So long as we keep it in degrees, angle ACB is equal to arc AB @Nixy

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

hint: we can write this proportion: \[\Large \frac{{\pi r}}{{180}} = \frac{{x + 1}}{{\frac{x}{2} + 6}}\] where r is the radius of your circumference

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

nevertheless we have to know the measure of r

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok, Since she/he said to keep them equal so if ACB = AB then \( \huge \frac{1}{2}x + 6 = x+ 1 \) x = 10

OpenStudy (k.binks):

Yeah, Ill try it that way because it's the only method that gives me an answer. If you want, I'll let you know what the correct answer is after I turn it in

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, please let me know. Thank you.

OpenStudy (k.binks):

np, thanks for your help

OpenStudy (k.binks):

The answer was 10, I got it correct :) @Nixy

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sweet!!! Great!!
