To find the length of an arc, we can use the formula:
Arc Length = (θ/360) × C
where θ is the angle in degrees and C is the circumference of the circle.
Given:
- C (Circumference) = 60 cm
- θ (Angle) = 140 degrees
Now we can substitute the values into the formula:
Arc Length = (140/360) × 60 cm
Calculating the fraction:
Arc Length = (0.3889) × 60 cm
Arc Length = 23.3333 cm
Therefore, the length of the arc that subtends an angle of 140 degrees in a circle with a circumference of 60 cm is approximately 23.33 cm.
