00:00this is question number two exercise 6.2 a central angle in a circle of radius
00:054cm is 75 degrees we have to find the length arc and area of a sector
00:13now mention the given information you have
00:17radius you have 4cm angle you have 75 degrees
00:21first of all you should know the formula l is equal to r theta
00:26this is the formula we are going to use radius you have 4cm and theta you have 75 degrees
00:35now never use angle degrees in your formula first we will convert it to mass radians
00:43how to convert? we all know that one degree is equal to pi over 180 radians
00:51now if I put value of pi as 3.1416 and divide it by 180
01:01then I will get value of one degree here that is 0.0175
01:09so basically one degree is equal to 0.0175 radians
01:16now simply what I will do
01:18I will keep radius as 4cm and 75 degrees
01:25but you want to change it to radius so you will multiply it by this value
01:30so when we multiply it we will get angle as 1.3125
01:40both these values will be multiplied and you will get answer as 5.25cm
01:53this is the length of the arc
01:56now we have to find area of a sector
01:59half r square theta
02:01half will be equal to 0.5
02:04radius you have 4 square
02:07and we have calculated theta
02:09this is our angle
02:13it was 75 degrees we converted it to radians
02:17one degree is equal to 0.0175 radians
02:21so this is our angle
02:23your angle will be 1.3125
02:28when you will multiply all these values by calculator
02:32so simply it is going to be 10.5cm square
02:36this will be your area
