The length of an arc which subtends an angle of x radians at the centre of a circle with radius r cm is simply rx cm.

If you measure angles in degrees then it will be r*x*(pi/180) cm

How do I find the diameter of a circle only having an arc length?

If you have only the arc length then you cannot find the diameter.


How can you find the length of an arc with the radius known?

The length of the arc is r*theta where r is the radius and theta the angle subtended by the arc at the centre of the circle. If you do not know theta (or cannot derive it), you cannot find the length of the arc.


How do you find the length of an arc in geometry?

length of arc/length of circumference = angle at centre/360 Rearranging the equation gives: length of arc = (angle at centre*length of circumference)/360


What is the arc length if the length of the arc is 95 degrees?

Find the circumference of the whole circle and then multiply that length by 95/360.


Who to arc length Radius of the circle 4756 and angle 45deg find arc length?

(arc length)/circumference=(measure of central angle)/(360 degrees) (arc length)/(2pi*4756)=(45 degrees)/(360 degrees) (arc length)/(9512pi)=45/360 (arc length)=(9512pi)/8 (arc length)=1189pi, which is approximately 3735.3536651

How do you find the arc length with the angle given?

An arc can be measured either in degree or in unit length. An arc is a portion of the circumference of the circle which is determined by the size of its corresponding central angle. We create a proportion that compares the arc to the whole circle first in degree measure and then in unit length. (measure of central angle/360 degrees) = (arc length/circumference) arc length = (measure of central angle/360 degrees)(circumference) But, maybe the angle that determines the arc in your problem is not a central angle. In such a case, find the arc measure in degree, and then write the proportion to find the arc length.
