In a circle of radius 42 cm, an arc subtends an angle of 60° at the center. Find the length of the arc. (Take π=227\pi={{22} \over 7})

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 44 cm.

Given that

Radius (r) = 42 cm

An angle of 60° at the centre

Formula used

Arc length = (θ/360) × 2πr = rθ × π/180

Calculation

Arc length = 42 × 60 × π/180 = 14 × 22/7 = 44 cm
