Answer:
m(arc CD) = 14.1 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Measure of an arc of the circle = [tex]\frac{\theta}{360}(2\pi r)[/tex]
Here 'r' = radius of the circle
θ = Angle subtended by the arc at the center of the circle
From triangle OED,
sin(∠EOD) = [tex]\frac{ED}{OD}[/tex]
sin(∠EOD) = [tex]\frac{\frac{12.7}{2}}{9.06}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{6.35}{9.06}[/tex]
= 0.7
m∠EOD = 44.498
≈ 44.5°
Angle subtended by the arc CD at the center = m∠COD
= 2(44.5)
= 89°
m(arc CD) = [tex]\frac{89}{360}(2\pi)(9.06)[/tex]
= 14.07
≈ 14.1 cm
