Question from Janie, a student: I'm having trouble with this question. Find the radius of a circle knowing that a chord of 24.6 inches has a corresponding arc of 70°. If someone could help me out with this it would be much appreciated. |
Hi Janie,
Look at the triangle $ABC.$ What trig function relates 12.3 inches, $r$ inches and $35^o?$
