A piece of wire 20 cm long is bent into the from of an arc of a circle, subtending an angle of `60^(@)` at its centre. Find the radius of the circle. |

Answer» Length of arc of circle = 20 cm Here, central angle `theta = 60^(@)` `:.` Length of arc = `(theta)/(360^(@))xx2pir` `rArr 20=(60^(@))/(360^(@))xx2pirrArr(20xx6)/(2pi) =r` `r = (60)/(pi)cm` Hence, the radius of circle is `(60)/(pi) cm`. |
