Will someone please help me
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Sure
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Umm is the angle 2pi/3?(just making sure)
OpenStudy (alex6799):

Ok so how many radians are there in a circle? (Like there are 360 degrees in a circle)
OpenStudy (alex6799):
4?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Umm no, hint: it is in terms of pi
OpenStudy (anonymous):
If you don't know it's fine, just ask
OpenStudy (alex6799):
...3.14?

Yeah no
there are 2pi radians in a circle
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Ok wait before we go any further
Are you more comfortable in degrees than radians?
OpenStudy (alex6799):
yea
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Ok then let's convert 2pi/3 into degrees
That's 120 degrees
Because pi= 180 degrees, then 2 x 180=360, 360/3= 120
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Right?

\[2\pi r\] ring a bell?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
With r standing for the radius?
OpenStudy (alex6799):
yea
OpenStudy (anonymous):
OK so what's the radius of this circle?
OpenStudy (alex6799):
that would be 2pi times 4 right?
