OpenStudy (thatemokid66):
okay so arc length/ circumference = arc measure/360
OpenStudy (thatemokid66):
arc length = x because it is unknown
OpenStudy (thatemokid66):
arc measure = 72

@mjdennis I did reply but you did not answer

Sorry, computer locked up.
There are 360° in a circle: this picture might help|dw:1465577465749:dw|
OpenStudy (thatemokid66):
so we have to find the circumference which is 2*pi*r
OpenStudy (thatemokid66):
your radius is 5 so put that in as r
OpenStudy (thatemokid66):
2*pi*5

31.4

so now put that back into the first equation:
arc length/ circumference = arc measure/360
OpenStudy (thatemokid66):
arc length/ 31.4 = arc measure/360
OpenStudy (thatemokid66):
arc length/ circumference = 72/360
OpenStudy (thatemokid66):
sorry i meant
arc length/ 31.4 = 72/360
OpenStudy (thatemokid66):
can you solve for arc length yourself now?

well 31.4/360 is 0.2
OpenStudy (thatemokid66):
you mean 72/360=0.2
OpenStudy (thatemokid66):
a/31.4=0.2
a = 6.28
zarkam21 (zarkam21):
so the answer is 6.28
OpenStudy (thatemokid66):
yeah, im pretty sure

@mjdennis can you confirm
OpenStudy (mjdennis):
Where's your work? If you think he isn't right, show us why.
zarkam21 (zarkam21):
Well, you explain it better could we go back to the first one, I'll tag you in it
zarkam21 (zarkam21):
I gott the answer to this thank you everyone
OpenStudy (mjdennis):
Don't forget you said "will medal for sure". @ThatEmoKid66 did a lot of work.
