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
(Use `pi = 22/7`)
Solution
Let O be the centre, and AB be the arc length of the circle.
l = AB = 22 cm
r = OA = OB = 100 cm
∵ arc = radius × angle
Where arc, l = 22 cm radius
radius r = 100 cm
22 = 100 × θ
θ = `22/100` radian
= `22/100xx180/pi` degree
= `22/100xx180/22xx7` degree
= `63/5` degree
= 12° 36'

Let the angles of the quadrilateral be \[\left( a - 3d \right)^\circ, \left( a - d \right)^\circ, \left( a + d \right)^\circ \text{ and }\left( a + 3d \right)^\circ\]
We know: \[a - 3d + a - d + a + d + a - 2d = 360\]
\[ \Rightarrow 4a = 360\]
\[ \Rightarrow a = 90\]
We have:
Greatest angle = 120°
Now,
\[a + 3d = 120\]
\[ \Rightarrow 90 + 3d = 120\]
\[ \Rightarrow 3d = 30\]
\[ \Rightarrow d = 10\]
Hence,
\[\left( a - 3d \right)^\circ, \left( a - d \right)^\circ, \left( a + d \right)^\circ\text{ and }\left( a + 3d \right)^\circ\] are
