Find the degree measure of the angle subtended at the centre of a circle of radius 100 cm by an arc of length 22 cm.
Question

Find the degree measure of the angle subtended at the centre of a circle of radius 100 cm by an arc of length 22 cm.

A.

2°36’

B.

62°36’

C.

12°36'

D.

22°36'

Correct option is C

Given:
Radius of the circle, r = 100 cm
Length of the arc, l = cm
Formula Used:
Angle in radians: θ=lr\theta = \frac{l}{r}​​​
Conversion from radians to degrees: θdegrees=θ×180π\theta_{\text{degrees}} = \theta \times \frac{180}{\pi}​​
Solution:
Calculate the angle in radians:
θ=22100=0.22 radians\theta = \frac{22}{100} = 0.22 \text{ radians}​​
Convert θ to degrees:
θdegrees=0.22×180π\theta_{\text{degrees}} = 0.22 \times \frac{180}{\pi} ​​​
Using π=227\pi = \frac{22}{7}​:
θdegrees=0.22×180×722\theta_{\text{degrees}} = 0.22 \times \frac{180\times 7}{22}​​
123612^\circ 36’​​
Thus, The degree measure of the angle is 123612^\circ 36’​ .
