 LENGTH OF AN ARC
The length of an arc of a circle (S) is equal to the product of the ratio (measure of the arc/360) and
the circumference of the circle.

b. Illustrative Examples
1. Find the length of arc MY if mMOY = 60o 2. How far from the center of a circle is an 8cm
in a circle with radius of 12 cm. Express chord in a circle with a radius of 5cm?
your answer in terms of π. Illustration Solution:
Illustration Solution
c2 = a2 + b2
52 = x2 + 42
25 = x2 + 16
9 = x2
3=x

III. PRACTICE TASK

Use the given figures to answer the following:

AO

B L
2. Find the length of the chord BL if the distance of 7
the chord from the center is 7 cm and the radius
25
of the circle is 24 cm.

3. Determine the length of an arc measuring 750 in

a circle with a radius of 10 inches.
