What is formula for finding the length of an arc when giving radio and the angle at the center

Mathematics

ScanSolve AI Answer

The formula for finding the length of an arc (LL) when given the radius (rr) and the central angle (θ\theta) is:

L=θ360∘×2πrL = \frac{\theta}{360^\circ} \times 2\pi r

where:

  • LL is the arc length.
  • θ\theta is the central angle in degrees.
  • rr is the radius of the circle.

Alternatively, if the angle θ\theta is given in radians, the formula is:

L=rθL = r\theta
