Respuesta :

arc length   =   circumference • [central angle (degrees) ÷ 360]

circumference = 2 * PI * radius
25.133

arc length   =   25.133 • [90 (degrees) ÷ 360]

arc length   =   6.283 inches


Answer:

The arc length of a central angle is 6.28 inches.                    

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A central angle of 90° in a circle whose radius is 4 inches.

To find : The arc length of a central angle?

Solution :

The formula to find arc length is given by,

[tex]\text{Arc length}=\text{Radius}\times \text{Angle}^\circ \times \frac{\pi}{180}[/tex]

We have given,

Radius = 4 inches

The central angle = 90°

Substitute the value in the formula,

[tex]\text{Arc length}=4\times 90 \times \frac{\pi}{180}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Arc length}=2\pi[/tex]

[tex]\text{Arc length}=6.28[/tex]

Therefore, The arc length of a central angle is 6.28 inches.
