I need to find the angle of a sector of a circle when the arc length is 9pi/8 and the radius is 4.5, please help me!!

Respuesta :

The angle of a sector of a circle is or [tex]0.25 \pi[/tex] or  0.785 radians

Solution:

The arc length when angle in radians is given by formula:

[tex]s = r \times \theta[/tex]

Where,

r is the radius

From given,

[tex]r = 4.5\\\\s = \frac{9 \pi }{8}[/tex]

Substituting the values we get,

[tex]\frac{9 \pi }{8} = 4.5 \times \theta\\\\\theta = \frac{9 \pi }{8 \times 4.5}\\\\\theta = 0.25 \pi[/tex]

Thus angle of a sector of a circle is or [tex]0.25 \pi[/tex] or 0.785 radians
