Step-by-step solution
4 stepsDetermine the fraction of the circle represented by the minor sector.
The circle is divided into two sectors in the ratio 3:7. The total number of parts is .
The minor sector corresponds to the smaller ratio, which is 3.
So, the minor sector represents of the entire circle.Calculate the angle of the minor sector in radians.
A full circle is radians.
The angle of the minor sector is:Calculate the length of the minor arc.
The formula for the arc length of a sector is , where is the radius and is the angle in radians.
Given radius cm.
Substitute the values:Using :
Round the answer and select the correct option.
Rounding to two decimal places, cm.
Comparing this to the given options:
A) 18.85cm
B) 13.20cm
C) 12.30cm
D) 11.30cm
The closest option is B) 13.20cm.The length of the minor arc is .
