Name ______________________________Module 5 Arc Length and Radian MeasureLearning Target: I can express the measure of an angle in radians and calculate the length of an arc.Opening Exercise1. What is the circumference of a circle with radius 10 cm. 2. A circular pizza with a 12 inch diameter is cut into eight congruent pieces. What is the measure of the central angle in each slice?Arc Length and Radian MeasureIn the opening exercise we calculated the circumference of a circle with radius 10 cm. Recall that the entire arc around a circle measures 360°. Now let’s calculate the length of a fraction of that arc. 1. What is the length of the arc of degree that measures 60° in a circle of radius 10 cm?In general, if the circumference of a circle with radius r is 2πr, then the length of an arc of degree measure ?° on a circle of radius r is x3602πr. *Notice that there is a difference between the measure of an arc in degrees and the length of an arc. 2. Given the concentric circles with center A and with m∠A=60°, calculate the measure in degrees of each arc intercepted by ∠A. Then, calculate the arc length intercepted by ∠A on each circle. The inner circle has a radius of 10, and each circle has a radius 10 units greater than the previous circle. Measure of arc in circle with radius AB=_______ Arc length in circle with radius AB=_______Measure of arc in circle with radius AC=_______ Arc length in circle with radius AC=_______Measure of arc in circle with radius AD=_______ Arc length in circle with radius AD=_______3. What is the arc length if the central angle has a measure of 1°?Note: Mathematicians have used this relationship to define a new angle measure, a radian. A radian is the measure of the central angle that intercepts an arc of length equal to one radius length. 4. If 1°=π180 radians, what does 180° equal in radian measure? What does 360° equal in radian measure? 1 radian is approximately 57.3 degrees.5. What is the radian measure of an angle of 27°?6. What is the degree measure of an angle of -3π4 radians?7. What is the degree measure of an angle of 2π radians?8. What is the length of an arc intercepted by a central angle of 60o in a circle with a radius of 7 inches?9. In circle O, the length of radius OB is 5 centimeters and the length of AB is 5 centimeters. What is the measure of ∠AOB?10. Ileana buys a large circular pizza that is divided into eight equal slices. She measures along the outer edge of the crust from one piece and finds it to be 512 inches. What is the diameter of the pizza to the nearest inch?Name ______________________________Module 5 Arc Length and Radian MeasureProblem Set1. P and Q are points on the circle of radius 5 cm, and the measure of arc PQ is 72°. Find the length of PQ.2. What is the radius of a circle if the length of a 45° arc is 9π?3. AB and CD both have an angle measure of 30°, but their arc lengths are not the same. OB=4 and BD=2. What are the arc lengths of AB and CD?4. In the circles shown, find the value of x.

A sprinkler system is set up to water the sector shown in the accompanying diagram, with angle ABC measuring 1 radian and radius AB=20 feet. What is the length of arc AC, in feet?10. A dog has a 20-foot leash attached to the corner where a garage and a fence meet, as shown in the accompanying diagram. When the dog pulls the leash tight and walks from the fence to the garage, the arc the leash makes is 55.8 feet. What is the measure of angle ? between the garage and the fence, in radians?11. A central angle of a circular garden measures 2.5 radians and intercepts an arc of 20 feet. What is the radius of the garden?12. A circle has a radius of 4 inches. In inches, what is the length of the arc intercepted by a central angle of 2 radians?(1) 2π(2) 2(3) 8π(4) 8Name ______________________________Module 5Arc Length and Radian MeasureExit Ticket1.
