Find the measure of each arc and the length of each chord.
Answer to Problem 27PPS
The measure of each arc is
Explanation of Solution
Given :
R is designing a logo for a friend’s coffee shop according to the design given. Each chord is equal in length.
Calculation:
The diameter of
So, the radius is 1.5 ft.
Since each chord is equal in length, so the inner yellow part forms a square. The diagonals of a square are perpendicular bisectors , so , the given situation is :
Since the measure of minor arc is equal to the relative central
Now, the length of each chord is equal .
Consider the right
So, the measure of each are is about 2.12 ft.
