Answer:
Part 1) The exact value of the arc length is
Part 2) The approximate value of the arc length is
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1
Find the circumference of the circle
The circumference of a circle is equal to
[tex]C=2\pi r[/tex]
we have
[tex]r=5[/tex] [tex]in[/tex]
substitute
[tex]C=2\pi (5)[/tex]
[tex]C=10\pi[/tex] [tex]in[/tex]
step 2
Find the exact value of the arc length by a central angle of 150 degrees
Remember that the circumference of a circle subtends a central angle of 360 degrees
by proportion
[tex]\frac{10\pi }{360}=\frac{x}{150}[/tex]
[tex]x=10\pi *150/360[/tex]
[tex]x=\frac{25}{6} \pi[/tex] [tex]in[/tex]
step 3
Find the approximate value of the arc length
To find the approximate value, assume
[tex]\pi =3.14[/tex]
substitute
