The angle of a sector of s circle, radius 10.5cm, is 48 o, Calculate the perimeter of the sector
Answer Details
To find the perimeter of the sector, we need to find the arc length and add the radii. The formula for the arc length of a sector is: Arc length = (angle/360) x 2πr where r is the radius of the circle, and angle is the angle of the sector in degrees. In this case, the radius is given as 10.5 cm, and the angle is 48 degrees. So, the arc length is: Arc length = (48/360) x 2π x 10.5 Arc length = 0.133 x 2 x 3.14 x 10.5 Arc length = 8.82 cm (rounded to two decimal places) Now, we add the radii to the arc length to get the perimeter of the sector: Perimeter = 2 x 10.5 + 8.82 Perimeter = 28.82 cm (rounded to two decimal places) Therefore, the answer is 28.8cm.
