If the angle subtended at the centre of a circle of radius 6 cm by an arc of length 2ℼ cm θ, then find θ/30.

Answer»

We know that the length of an arc of a sector of angle θ = \(\dfrac{2\pi r \theta }{360} \) 

Using this formula, we get 

\(\dfrac{2\pi r \theta }{360} \) = 2π 

⇒ 6θ/ 360 = 1

∴  6θ = 360 ∴ θ = 60°

Hence, θ/30 = 60°/30° = 2°

given : 
radius of circle(r) = 6 cm 
arc length(s) = 2π cm 
we know that, 
θ rad = s / r
 
So, θ =( 2π / 6) rad
          = (π/3) rad
          = 60°
Therefore , θ/30 = (60/30)°
                              = 2°
